That's a great way to kill OSS. This is only bootlicking the idea of corporations profiting off of unpaid labor.

Well something needs to be done urgently, before hospitals and critical infrastructure start getting ransomware infected on a daily basis. This isn't an unlikely scenario either, all it will take is one well resourced attacker to spin up thousands of decensored agents and have them pumping out attacks 24/7. I'm actually kind of surprised it hasn't already happened. TeamPCP is just the beginning. We're lucky they're not using ransomware, otherwise the carnage would be 100-fold.
Then the corporations, medical system, etc needs to help support the people who make OSS software if they want the immediate, urgent change you're suggesting.
