Saying Goodbye to GitHub
You just described proprietary software. It's a philosophy incompatible with free software.
You aren't required to pay for a gift, which is what free software is.

Nah, nope. You usually don't get the source for proprietary software. Just like you get medical care when you are in an accident, same should apply to work done on os software. Somehow devs should be compensated for their work on os soft.
