Antirez discovered github was using redis by accident on a non related thread here sometime ago, and there was very little outrage.
Open source should be just about taking, if million dollar companies, forget supporting projects they rely on, can't even tell the authors something has gone wrong.
Ideally those who can afford it should throw some support to the projects they use. But clearly this is not happening, if the project becomes too important then they simply acquire the project with downsides for everyone.
There has to be a middle way that has upsides for all parties and untill that is figured out this can work in the interim.
