Par for the course when running a proprietary application. If doing that on Linux, can you imagine what it and others do under Windows ?
As people running Linux should know, you cannot trust proprietary applications.

I would rather have a nice popup on first attempt "this application is monitoring your clipboard, allow?", ideally with that process completely suspended while that prompt is up.
This should be behind a toggle driven by intent, rather than something allowed by default. Default stance on trust should be "don't". Open source has nothing to do with it, when a typo while installing with a package manager means you might accidentally install something else (a common attack vector).
