I'm not sure if this article is FUD, or just written by someone without a clue.

The author shows very little understanding of Free and Open Source Software and the major licenses that govern it.

It's a TechCentralStation article. Many believe that TCS is totally for-hire, a big fat shill. http://www.corante.com/bottomline/archives/000663.html

And yes, this article does seem like a pile of FUD. It's sort of the opposite of the FirstMonday articles where they observe that F/OSS has had success, then try to figure out the economics of it: http://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue9_1/bonaccorsi/index.... and http://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue4_10/bezroukov/index....
