I agree, completely. It is a policy issue. For that reason, I am imploring the maintainers of packaging communities like Sublime Text, pip, CPAN, etc. to put forth a firm stance in their policy that says No, we will not tolerate this, period. If you don't, it sends the message that this sort of scummy behavior is acceptable so long as you disclose it. I don't think that's okay, I don't think any sane end-user thinks that's okay. What little defense of this I've seen inevitably comes from other developers, who invariably have monetization in the back of their minds. |
