So you're saying that opt-out automatic update checking ruined their product by any reasonable definition, and they were entirely aware of this, so by claiming that automatic update checking is useful they were gaslighting their users?
If so, then from what source are we certain that the "army of people telling them 'no'" in the relevant GitHub issues is representative of how their broader user base feels about automatic update checking? And how do we know that they ought to have been similarly certain?
