This thing with the founders is interesting (remind me to make my own license with "I take it all down with me if you destroy me" clause), but I want to know much more.

But who/what is the attack vector? Is it a coordinated attack and if so, what is the method and who are the backers? Are there other founders included in this trend? Granted, those three are pretty big but ...

I'm not sure it matters... Even if it was completely uncoordinated or by accident, it's not good for the ecosystem.

I would disagree. If it were coordinated, it could possibly be exposed and countered.

If it were a coordinated attack then the chance of successfully countering it with a loosely knit community would have been be slim at best.

that's a fair assessment, but it's also already happened, so, even if the outcomes are reversible, it's still a bad "leading indicator", as it were.

It's always either Marxist feminists or agent provocateurs for proprietary software. Or both.

I think I would want a few more data points before signing off on the first one, but perhaps not the second.
