After the sshd debacle, and in the context of GenAI becoming ever better at impersonation at scale, I don't think anyone working on a security-relevant project should simply hand off to an enthusiastic community member they don't know well.
Do you remember when Raymond Hill ceded control of uBlock to another guy? This new guy started asking for donations (for himself) and then sold the project to AdBlock.
That was truly disgusting.
That’s what prompted Raymond to create uBlock Origin.
