Indeed. License compliance is something very secretive, the old-styled management does not really want to hear they are using GPL. When the company gets acquired is a shock discovering otherwise. Would be better to understand what GPL is all about, rather than hiding. Last year we had a company in Germany that the acquisition failed because they were not respecting the copyleft licenses.

What makes me really sad is organizations where management sort of understands, but argues things like:
* we have never cared about this since we started way back and it has worked fine!
* it will cost us time and money, let's ignore it.
* how could someone ever find out?
That said, having a tool that can clearly point to problems could be a big help when management changes and someone sympathetic to uncovering and fixing license issues comes in.
