That is a broad label and no indicator of quality whatsoever.  It
applies to organizations genuinely interested in the betterment of
society, happy faces painted on top of companies taking weird business
decisions (looking at you, Mozilla), and right-wing think tanks spewing
propaganda while claiming to be an academical institution in name only
and accepting huge amounts of cash to speak on behalf of big oil
against any regulations that would impact their profits.

While in principle I agree that all companies are sketchy always, the
cookbook still is not a place for endorsements, but for technical
solutions.  Your contribution is the former.  To be anything but you
should at the very least guide users through the process of purging
password-less root access.

Cheers
