Hi,
have you some links to these applications?
I believe Jonathan will be referring to

Hi, thanks for the link.
Guess such things are unavoidable.
If the uploading person is some KDE community member, I assume one could
talk with him/her/...
Otherwise we must keep in mind we are open source and yes, this is
possible.
(and perhaps promote the KDE e.V. uploaded stuff better)
Greetings
Christoph
