When their 'common decency' is directly benefiting a money making corporation with shareholders and directors then yes they should definitely get some money out of it.

On the other hand, the lack of common decency can endanger innocent 3rd parties.
If you create a 3rd party app to some closed source insecure back end, thats on you for trusting them or not doing your due diligence.

Time and time again private companies have rug pulled things like api access for 3rd party apps (such as twitter/X). Building 3rd party clients for private systems should already be approached with heavy scepticism and always be prepared for the worst.

You are correct, but none of that absolves the person of their responsibilities to others with regard to common decency.

Notify, then publish

Bull.

I've got a Proton VPN sub, what would you say are the biggest reasons to switch to Mullvad?
