This explains it in more detail. Debian likely has a special relationship as
the SPI was founded by Debian developers. Seems the SPI owns Debian, not just
Trademark but Copyright as well.
"Software in the Public Interest, Inc. is a tax-exempt non-profit corporation
based in the United States of America, founded by Debian people in 1997 to
help free software/hardware organisations."
