Oxc Open Collective distributes all of its funds to its core contributors. Payouts depend on how much runway we have. The only problem is ... it's now getting dirty money, how do I reject it?

What is dirty money?

Check the sponsors section here socket.io You'll understand

They’re incentivized by the backlink on your homepage. It’s probably easier to make a rule and prevent these funds from showing up than rejecting it entirely.

I don’t think you have to reject it, even though that sector is dirty indeed. However, if we don’t want to support that industry, that is a licensing problem. The fact they support back is fine. Unless this is an actual money laundering platform, but that’s more an issue for opencollective to solve

I’m not saying that oxc needs to move of MIT as a license. It’s just that the ethical dilemma actually starts there
