That is a nice thing to do, but I think people will still be hesitant because there is no way to know whether that code you open-sourced is actually what's in the Chrome Store, or that the Chrome Store listing won't change ownership in the future. (Chrome extensions auto-update, so it's easy to ship users code that does something "new and exciting", and when dealing with software supply chain risk, "new and exciting" is something many people don't want.) I get that you just wanted to make something cool, and it is very cool, but people are also right to be paranoid here. Compare the value between having a certain tiny image in your PRs versus being able to check code into any organization's Git repo as a trusted engineer at that organization, and how much someone would pay you on the black market for either of those things. |
