Fair enough from a business standpoint, but seeing as there are massive privacy/security risks involved in exposing your data to an opaque service, the open source component is probably a non-optional aspect of the value prop.

how come? just because it's open source doesn't mean that they run that exact binary on their servers. ngrok does pretty well without open sourcing.

The locus of trust moves, if you have the source, and trust is a factor for you, because you can simply self-host and know what you're running.
