It may seem a bit pedantic, but Debian is incorporated. SPI Inc, as memory serves. They're an incorporated NPO. All the major distros will be corporations - and not even non-profits. RHEL is a for-profit corporation, as would be Oracle's and probably a few more.
There are all sorts of corporate entities and not all corporations are bad. That's my point, really.
Debian doesn't cost anything, but needs all these partnerships with for-profits in order to exist like Ubuntu.
