What's going on with Moq? SponsorLink and burnt soil!
Read OriginalThis article examines the controversy surrounding the popular .NET mocking library, Moq, after it integrated SponsorLink. SponsorLink is a .NET analyzer that checks if a user is a GitHub sponsor during the build process, potentially displaying warnings and raising data privacy (GDPR) issues by hashing and transmitting email data. The piece discusses the ethical, technical, and legal concerns, including build delays, lack of opt-out, and the closed-source nature of SponsorLink, within the broader context of open-source sustainability.
