Really, they should have merged this into some competing database for optimal marketing, like MongoDB. This is kind of like if you bought an Adidas sneaker and it said Adidas on it, like, yeah. I know.

I'm okay with this. Seems like they are going about it responsibly enough. Really don't understand the vitriol behind the response near the end either.

I would prefer it if there were more things like this. Or a randomly chosen line from a set for example.
