I don't like having people call me rude things on the internet. One way I can mitigate this is by not making my code OSS, which leads some small percentage of assholes to send really nasty messages when the code doesn't do what they want.

The context for this thread is whether this is an acceptable reason for keeping source closed. It seems from context that you don't believe this is an acceptable reason. You also say that if I can't ignore people that I should turn off my internet, which makes me think that you believe this is an acceptable response.

Thus, I believe that you believe that turning off the internet is a reasonable response and closing my source isn't.
