Steal what? It is already freely available. This is just more FUD spread by

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
long.  The resale value of the github analytics is the driving factor
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.
