Steal what? It is already freely available. This is just more FUD spread by
people who fail to comprehend the actual logistics of the situation.
Unless you have a repo marked as private. Good luck discovering the IP
stolen from that. Not an issue for FreeBSD you say, perhaps, embargos
and pre-released dev code aside.
Passed their SOC2 audit? Sadly, there are lots of ways around those.
Expect an update in the terms of service and/or privacy statement before

here. No different from Skype et al.
Don't drink the cool-aid i.e., don't take sales and marketing efforts to
paint this as an exclusively altruistic purchase at face value.
