The SCO lawsuit, 20 years later
I had to deal with fallout from this.  At the time I worked at eBay, and were not allowed to use any OS except Windows or RedHat Linux.  The reason we had to use RedHat?  Because we had a paid license from them that included them absorbing all liability from IP claims regarding Linux.<p>But if anyone was around then, you'd probably remember that RedHat was one of the worse distros of linux at the time.  So we were forced to use an inferior product because it came with IP indemnity.  Thanks SCO!
