The structure of the OpenBSD project suggests that this project might be able to resist better than others. It is no company. It is no charity.

As long as it has a few people who know what they want, it might stand unconquered for a while. Not because those people are morally better than or in any way stronger than others, but because they wisely choose a context for living and working that lets them grow rather than corrupting them.
The "structure" is nothing more or less than the BSD license that's the only license that has no strings attached (without DRM) and a community with enough people that understand it's civil and polite.
