This is a self contradictory statement.
Free software was born to replace proprietary software. I.e. GNOME was
born to replace KDE when it was dependent by QT. 

But anti-proprietary is a bad word, it miss the point that is
propositive, not negative.

I thik that a good statement should be:

"The GNOME Foundation believes in free software and promotes it as a
reliable alternative* to proprietary software."

* or "a reliable replacement"



> Sometimes those companies are
> > proprietary software companies 


Most of main software companies are not only-proprietary software
companies, i.e. Google, Oracle/SUN, Intel, etc. 

A statement like this:

"Sometimes those companies products proprietary software too, and
while ...."

is more accurate.
