Holy crap he is just continuing to build the case against him. His own for-profit automattic's plugins have built in upsells and add additional data harvesting code that you can't opt out of while you use them.
He just keeps treating the non-profit .org stuff and his Automattic for-profit as interchangable.
It's time for the community to find a solution for distributed update servers that at most only rely on Mullenweg for hash checking to prevent tanpering. This is blatantly just a vendetta now.
It's time for a fork that's not under hostile control.
