I have talked to Clem personally about various financial aspects a number of time and he has always been very adamant about keeping a distance from corporate interests. Yes- they want to see the user base grow. Everybody wants to see that. Unfortunately reporters, bloggers, and people like yourself make up sensationalist statements like this.
