  On the one hand yes, that can happen. On the other hand, it may be a legitimate monetization strategy for Open Source libraries. Additionally, Langchain does have a role on R&D, you can use it for experimental projects. Simply deduct the self-preservating aspects of it and try to learn from its ideas, test them in non-critical projects. If it works, you can then easily replicate it with an internal tool or just plain code. Also, it's an Open Source library, how much vendor-lock can you have if you control the code and the server? The actual dependency is on the LLM provider, and if you use something like Meta's LLama you can self-host it as well.
