I am also interested in the answer to Nemo's question about whether this "is the first piece of proprietary software ever entering use in the Wikimedia projects land?"
Translatewiki has been using Yandex for a while (and used Google while it was available, and a third one I can't remember right now). Not sure if it counts as a Wikimedia project or not.
We also use MaxMind for geolocation, which is I believe free software using a proprietary database.
