    I have long since come to the conclusion that most of the nodejs ecosystem is rotten. I don't even know where to begin.

    I'm certain this is a mentality issue more than anything.

    One might reasonably wonder whether executing npm outside a sandbox is a good idea under any circumstances.

    Analytics shouldn't break applications. If anything npm should provide a way to opt into analytics and provide them to all publishers.

    `curl -i http://blip.strongloop.com/loopback` returns content from S3. Are we suggesting then they are using S3 bucket analytics to see how many times a package has been downloaded then?

    Should the HN title include "(2015)"? This StrongLoop issue was reported in February 2015.
