That would be a strange one for a former employee to call the BSA
and tell on a company with no Microsoft software. Maybe he/she
thought it would cause more trouble but really, how could it?

And I don't think open source is THAT well used so this example is
probably not going to help anyone who does have a Microsoft license
somewhere in the building. The BSA can just ask Microsoft too look
up the name to see if there's anything current.

But still, a great defense in more ways than one.
