Ugh, now not only you don't own your code (ahem copilot cough) you also don't own the tools to develop code. The direction the web is taking is worrisome.
The issue is not so much senior devs, but new devs. If they start off with things like that, there' so much magic under the hood, they won't understand how anything works. They don't understand they don't own shit until it's too late.
I remember when I first saw the JAM stack, basically they use external services for *EVERYTHING*, claiming it's "The future™". They don't even own the data/database.

I'd rather make things better for users, rather than companies. Stallman's essay [The Right to Read](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/right-to-read.html) gets more and more scary.
