This was a single project (two if you count core-js). It was not an epidemic. There would have been ample time until/if this was rampant. npm inc have not been proactive in these issues before, so this action is particularly odd.

Stop arguing about ads in your terminal. That is beside the point. I do not want to debate that. I am criticising the decision of npm inc to place arbitrary constraints on what a package can do (outside of malware etc).

I'm trying my best to imagine what it'd feel like to care about ads flashing by in my terminal but I'm honestly drawing a blank. How is this even possible? How is it possible to care about this? Especially when the beneficiary could be under-appreciated volunteer OSS devs

Especially since Yarn already suppresses postinstall stdout and stderr unless the exit code fails the install. Solved problem technically, and no heavy handed censorship of the platform.

How yarn suppressing the output and not showing ads is better than npm suppressing the ads ? What you do is pure trolling in my opinion
-
One is hiding it st the client level, the other is censoring package publishing. Don’t accuse me of trolling.

Do you *really* mean "don't know how anyone"? Probably something to do with npm stopping an annoyance that could easily have proliferated into a "tragedy-of-the-commons" situation. I imagine they're the same people who support browsers suppressing pop-ups, use ad blockers etc.

This wasn't widespread at all, and I do not believe that npm inc are motivated by the same reasons as either "side" of the conversationhttps://twitter.com/sebmck/status/1167521385695985664 …

Ads are a security risk and allowing them will incentivize all of the awful things that come with ads (eg impression tracking). Nipping that in the bud is the only responsible move.

And if you’re that desperate hit me up for a few cents then make me register/pay for an api key or whatever
