(added a spreadsheet)
Q. How important is the takeover protection (question S1, choice 1) for a) the survey respondents who are a corporate sponsor of OSM or a commercial company using OSM data (question D1, choices 5, 6, or and b) those respondents who are neither? Is there a difference between the two groups? If yes, is it (statistically) significant?
 
A. There is a statistically significant difference between those who answered yes and those who answered no to these two questions. I did not break out the "double no" group ("no" in both categories) because to be frank doing that complicates the problem and the difference on initial examination was not that great. You can see the numbers in the spreadsheet [https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/e/eb/Takeover-rank-company-sponsor.ods here].
 
The methodology was to assign a rank of 7 to 1 for first choice, second choice, et cetera for the option "Takeover protection". I multiplied the rank of each choice times the number of observations who made that choice, then took the means and standard deviations (range of course was 1 through 7) and counted the number of observations.
