Attack and rights are not exclusive concepts. I would venture to say that your comment is mostly nonsequitor.

It's an indirect attack against the lazy and complacent, at the very least. How dare the developer do that to them?!

People hate it when you make more work for them and companies will actively fight back so the outrage is predictable. What's surprising is the lack of support for both user and developer agency. Some have gone so far as to say that users have some sort of ownership over someone else's licensed code they chose to blindly change (apply an update) by right of "community" because they used it when it did what they wanted.
