I'm not entirely convinced it's as true as it sounds.  Not all
companies exist to survive and profit; a few, especially privately-held
ones, express the desires of their owner(s) instead, and it would
surprise me if there weren't a few who would be delighted to be put out
of business by no longer having anything to combat - Spamhaus is the
first one who comes to mind as a plausible example.

Probably only a comparative few, though. :(
