IBM and its minions ...

From a tech talk about the history of JSON

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C-JoyNuQJs&feature=player_detailpage#
t=2480s

(Note: Douglas Crockford put the following clause in the JSON license
"The Software should be used for Good, not Evil.")

About once a year, I get a letter from a lawyer, every year a
different lawyer, at a company - I don't want to embarrass the
company by saying their name, so I'll just say their initials - IBM...

[laughter]

...saying that they want to use something I wrote. Because I put this
on everything I write, now. They want to use something that I wrote
in something that they wrote, and they were pretty sure they weren't
going to use it for evil, but they couldn't say for sure about their
customers. So could I give them a special license for that?

Of course. So I wrote back - this happened literally two weeks ago -
"I give permission for IBM, its customers, partners, and minions, to
use JSLint for evil."

[laughter and applause]

And the attorney wrote back and said: "Thanks very much, Douglas!"
