This is where you have the double standard if you will. I agree with a lot of what you are saying, and of course the if someone is going to publish a "Nats Sponsor List" mine as well be NATS itself to publish it. For me this would raise quite the debate. Do we go ahead and do this since it is our product, or do we let others do it instead. For myself I would be leary at doing it myself in case of an exploit being found and having the actual list published by me the company owner. If someone else does it's easy to say ok no big deal, we fixed the exploit, but if the people around who wanted to be asshole found them all from you, this could also raise issues or drama, which is always a headache.
It's good though that you are not just putting everyone out there and giving them the option of being listed or not. It is nice being able to see everyone in one place, and awesome for webmasters. It would just be a headache for you if something did happen again. I am looking at it from your shoes, and no others. No harm meant once again, just a nice debate.
