I disagree on this point.
I've been make a living out of free software development for over a
decade now, and I know there are many people doing the same.

Businesses do not need to be afraid of (software) freedom,
but I can see businesses based on distributing non-free software
wanting to be sure they can easily find cheap components to build
their black boxes, and thus offering hosting for such potentially
exploitable components.
