There is a little bit of dissonance here. Microsoft, a multi billion dollar company who works with organizations such as ICE which routinely engages in human right abuses and causes sever suffering and harm to thousands of people who are already pretty vulnerable.
vs. an open source developer who’s work benefits companies like Microsoft who have no obligation to pay for that labor. And engages in a single industrial sabotage which causes minor disruptions, and harm which at most costs other developer some time and temporary frustrations.
I feel like we need some sense of relativity when we attribute nouns such as hazardous and dangerous here. Especially when we are talking about Microsoft.
