People are taking this NDA thing out of context. Like it was just a NDA about what they are talking about in a meeting, most likely because of mutual interests and Meta using the code under license, and looking to fund and how to contribute. I mean, I don't trust them or want anything to do with them really, but the world is not black and white. A lot of open source projects with no ulterior use are funded by Meta. It is not like a meeting means this is getting taken over. This knee jerk reaction is having a real, negative, effect on the developers. This is open source. We can always fork. There is nothing to pitchfork and picket about. It is entirely counter productive.
