@rysiek@mastodon.technology @gargron I have not followed this closely, but if the developer objected to the use of their code, why did they not delete it instead of crippling it?
@wim_v12e@rysiek My understanding is that after the left-pad incident, you can't delete NPM packages once they are posted for more than a short time. It is to prevent someone from basically deleting their coding and breaking everything.
