Thanks for defending your points.

I don’t understand why some here take your reports on GH personally. The fact that your reports aren’t taken seriously by the Atom team worries me. Your battle is right and presented in the right tones.



Whereas my point is that the developers of Atom have shown their true moral colours—and their honesty isn't sufficiently instructive to you? Unless you can get the developers to change their principles, getting them to change their source code today seems to be a rather temporary fix.

Meanwhile, isn't it strange that the default behaviour (on nearly all major consumer computer platforms) that we implicitly trust all applications with near-unfettered access to the internet. And we merely hope they don't betray us.
