Just saw the discussion around the Haier Home Assistant takedown and thought it would be good to materialize the metaphorical blacklist.

This seems like it could be useful info if it takes off

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

That garage door company that removed API access, breaking it for about 20000 Home Assistant users

Also they stopped working on their integration for Alexa/Homekit/Google Home, forcing all their users in general into their ad filled app.

Think it was Chamberlain or something

Obviously that was a controversial decision, but Red Hat probably contributes to Open Source more than any other company. To call Red Hat "OSS Hostile" is probably a little too much.

I think you're right. I've changed it to IBM instead of Red Hat themselves because they were the cause of the policy changes.
