So the TLDR; is don't trust any corporate open source that requires a CLA and don't contribute to those projects unless you are prepared to fork if the rug gets pulled.

You get to do work for a company for free with the added benefit that you're now also on the hook for any legal problems that might arise from the code you contributed. What a deal, you get to put in the time and effort AND potentially fight a legal battle when a patent troll decides to go "wouldn't it be fun if" all on your own!
