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).
This is my takeaway as well - it’s a strange line in the sand to draw while standing in an arid desert.

Stop arguing about the content of the code! That’s not the point! we should allow ANY code (except for the bad code that I don’t like)
Mmmmyeah, but isn't the distinction between malware and ads just as arbitrary? How and where does one draw that line?
Malware is any software intentionally designed to cause damage to a computer, server or computer network. Not interchangeable with Adware -- and I wouldn't call a single add during post install to make software (have) Adware.
Well, we have all opted into a centralized platform. We really need a shared decentralized alternative where users are more free. I am getting tired of the arbitrary rules of these platforms. Let us choose and make mistakes and be free!
