Naturally I don't think I care too much or I would care less. I believe I care an appropriate amount. Unstable leadership doesn't seem likely to provide stable software. I'm not going to invest time and energy learning something that could fall apart tomorrow.
I don't think everyone should take my approach but there are circumstances I deem extreme enough that it's worth mentioning so that other people can investigate and make informed decisions. I specifically didn't go into detail so that people who don't care don't have to think as much about it.
It shouldn't be. People need to bloody care about the nitty gritty. I'm tired of consumers and investors who know jack and shit about what it is people are leveraging their capital to do.
Think about how different the world could be if we shut off the spigot to companies that acted like asshats.
Sure, but I think "There is an asshat in an open-source project filling a needed spot in the mobile OS ecosystem is different than "Apple is funneling Chinese citizen communications to the CCCP" or "Google is helping the military develop facial-recognition killer drones".
