Any shame a person feels for their public contributions is their own.

  But please explain how publicly calling out and potentially doxxing developers would help this issue? Do you really want to target single developers and unleash the fury of the HN crown on them? If we talk about morality and ethics, I think this is worse than implementing tracking, isn't it? I know you guys wants to change the world and I absolutely agree that there are too many tracking in the world, but FFS, let's just take a step back and think about YOUR actions and their consequences. Not everyone has the luxury to quit a job if they don't agree with the morality of their work. I know we are talking about OSS, but lot of the developers are living on the donations and sponsorships or even got bought out by larger companies and to keep their jobs, they have to do said implementations.

    What I'm talking about doing is literally reporting on already public data.
