In my view, browser extensions are the biggest example of projects where this approach is a terrible idea. Most of them have enormous access to their users' browsing data and it's easy for them to inject ads, and so there's a lot of incentive for bad actors to try to take over popular extensions. From what I understand it's fairly common for publishers of popular extensions to get offers to purchase them.
