From http://www.spi-inc.org/about: SPI was incorporated as a non-profit organization on June 16, 1997 in the state of New York. Since then, it has become an umbrella organization for projects from the community. Software in the Public Interest happens to own our assets for legal reasons. Branden, would you like to elaborate on this? Anyway, getting back to the point, corporations can get to us by suing SPI if we distribute copyright/law infringing software.
