"Look, big organisations: if you try to freeride on FOSS your projects will fail" - I always understood "freeriding on FOSS" to mean reselling/repackaging without contribution to the project. But using "freeride" in the context of a company using a freely available FOSS tool by themselves ("org decides to do the project in-house") sounds strange to me. If the license allows me to use it why blame and shame orgs and people for using it?
