While this sentiment is applicable (and agreeable) now, I can't help but think it is a little short-sighted.
Can we really say <insert_megacorp_name_here> will do or not do 'X', or has some immutable policy 'Y', with any reliability? Historically, have we not seen that these policies change with the direction of the wind, and/or are applied inconsistently to suit narrative 'Z'?
What is true today may not be true tomorrow. There is no bastion of moral decency in cloud infra, and to make decisions based on a current stance is facile and probably pointless.
I'm far more interested in what awareness the GitLab folks have of this issue, and procedures in place to mitigate it, if any.
