Agreed.

For all the shit MongoDB gets, this is something that people should take a step back and recognize as very high in integrity, transparency, and trust.

Other businesses should follow their lead here.

I'm more inclined to do business with MongoDB because they've demonstrated these principles first-hand.

I don't use Atlas but I do use self hosted MongoDB, and have been pretty happy with that product. I have the impression that a lot of the dirt slung at Mongo was about unreliability and data loss of the core product early on, which (knock on wood) hasn't been a problem for me on the small to medium scale use cases I've deployed it on. Seems reliability has taken a lot of positive strides over the years.
