Yes, as VSCode that develops it first, it "sells" it as a free code but is under a proprietary license As it has done with so many other things. Sure, that you are talking about this.

Or xamarin that leaves the code open, but almost everything that exists about the project. It is associated with the services in the cloud of the own microsoft.. Or about how it seeks to make money from the absurd or more stupid unemployed, through selling crappy courses about office and powerpoint through linkedin and slideshare. Courses and information that is free through any place. But, as it is training signed and sealed by Microsoft, it's cool.

Microsoft tries to do what it has always done. Benefit and take advantage of the less savvy, and the world is full of them. This time with the new developers and programmers. With the least experts or small and medium enterprises.
