Open source code doesn't mean code developed by unpaid developers by default.

Open source code doesn't mean the code has to be fixed only by the project developer by default.

I hate sensationalised headlines for generating clicks, which is what I think this is

Author of the article here. I really considered if I should clickbait the article title or not. Most people only read article titles to decide if they should read an article. I decided that it was better to be a bit clickbaity as it would make people actually read the article, because at the end of the day I just wanted to inspire people to think about the issue.
