This is very silly and I urge you to rethink this position. The software is free, it contains a very explicit warranty disclaimer, and the implicit social contract is that nobody owes anyone anything. There is no fraud here. If you download the code I posted to my GitHub account and try to do something with it, and it doesn’t work or you don’t understand it or I didn’t bother writing docs, that is in fact very much on you. Perhaps my software project has lots of docs and I’m super helpful to users, and it is therefore more likely to be popular, or perhaps it does not have those properties and will stay obscure, but either way it is your job to decide what free software to use, not mine to make it up to your standards. I have never seen paywalled OSS docs and it seems like a silly idea, but that doesn’t make it fraudulent or even bad. It just makes it perhaps inadvisable to use. Which again is on you.
