Sure, and I hear the concern regarding exploitation of (potentially overworked, underpaid) developers and maintainers. But if a thousand people receive a free (perhaps sugar-addled) lunch from one of a few providers -- while collectively having the resources to feed each other free lunches (more sustainably, long-term) -- it doesn't seem fair to attack and blame those people for asking difficult questions about their food source. Even if they might seem entitled today, they're asking questions that will probably appear more than fair in retrospect. (I realize these analogies don't fit perfectly, and I'm aware I'm reframing the issue, perhaps awkwardly) With software, fortunately, it may be business critical, but it's rarely personal-health critical the way that nutrition is (unless, perhaps, we have already incorporated infrastructure too deeply into ourselves as humans).
