The stealing part is related because in this case, his project is "stealing" (or injecting a backdoor"). Does that make the analogy clearer? To be exact, he didn't do it specifically, but the non-profit is usually locked but he unlocked the door to let someone in and that person ended up stealing from the non-profit. I really don't understand why people do not see that if you cause a giant mess, you have some responsibility to clean up after yourself. Again, I'm not saying that they should be obligated to do work. But this isn't "working". This is cleaning up an issue that you have caused. > No. No one forced the society to use the work that somebody was doing for free. And if society decided that it's fine to use it, it's on the society to take the associated risks. Everything else is a good will of the maintainer. If I voluntarily baked a cake for you for free because I was nice and I mistakenly poisoned you, would you say "Oh i decided to take the risk of eating your cake anyway, not your fault"? I didn't have to bake the cake. But since I decided to, I have basic obligations including not putting poison in it.
