I'm glad people are building stuff for Linux, but the people who actually want something like this have likely already been using Opensnitch for years. I'm certainly not going to spend $60 for something that has been doing the job for free.
I think you're right insofar as they are trying to reposition themselves as more trustworthy. I think they see the writing on the walls.
But at the end of the day, their ultimate end is to make more money. If they do the right thing it isn't out of some altruistic motive. It's because they think that by doing so will make them more money.
