    do you really think I give a shit about tencent?

    Yes, but I don’t understand why.

    I just wanted to point out that this could have negative consequences for open source projects.

    Something tells me the private billion dollar tech conglomerate doesn’t host a lot of “open source” projects.

    Projects sponsored by them could lose a funding source, or any help work done by them could cease because of this.

    That’s true, what sort of wholesome projects would lose funding? I would love to see that they sponsor the world’s largest food bank or help casualties of war get adequate medical treatment or fit for prosthetics (there isn’t a lot of money to be made in philanthropy in case you weren’t aware, i have 0 faith in tencent being benevolent in any way).
