Drew is running a code hosting business and this is a cost of providing a feature to the users. He can pass the costs on if it is a problem. He has lots of options and his competitors are not making a big deal out of this.

I suspect he's drawn his line in the sand and wants to keep it going rather than finding a solution that works without requiring upstream changes.

If I provide a paid service and someone abuses it I must deal with it because my larger competitors deal with it? It's good to know that small businesses have no place in the modern world.
