RMS and Red Hat

In a recent interview RMS has credited Red Hat for becoming more Free Software friendly However Linus' decision to allow non-free drivers to be loaded into the Linux kernel worries him. Finally he points out that it is not essential that corporations to adopt Linux: they are no more important than individuals. Ed: Before you flame him (i.e. don't) consider that users and programmers are concerned mainly about improving the product, while corporations also think in terms of control (increasing profit by any means, proprietary information included).
