Well actually you can't sue either via the licenses. However, that is
not where large corps find the comfort. The comfort comes from the fact
that IBM, Oracle and MS will defend *you* if you are sued for ip
violation per the use of their product (e.g; oracle is violating a
patent and you get sued for using oracle).
