I am surprised at the outrage and the choice of adjectives in this thread.

Retool is using faker.js in their app, which is MIT. It also looks like the URLs to fakercloud.com CDN are hardcoded in the library [1] so I doubt this was intentional from the Retool dev.

They even have a shout out for faker.js in the “How we built this” box [2]

Using the fakercloud CDN is the only thing that retool is doing that seems wrong; if those URLs are coded into the library itself, than that's faker'js' mistake, not retool's. Sounds like it could be easily fixed with some clear communication.

Clear communication that hasn't happened yet.
