I can only think of plans that range from annoying to malicious. None that are good.
Don't normalize rude behavior. Conditionally free is not free.
It's your right as a consumer to not want to make that trade.
Not rude. Rude is posting the raw file link to subvert the agreement or complain about it on hacker news.
In addition, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should, and it's within my means to assert that anyone who asks for my contact information but doesn't know me personally /definitely/ wants to spam me, there's no other reason for them to ask for that information.
Being polite, spamming is rude. Being rude, people who send or enable spam are worthless scum. I have no time for anyone who chooses willfully to be part of that cycle.
My freedom to express that opinion actually /is/ a right[1].
