Google paywalled Gemini Pro models in the CLI free tier on March 25. This is the third step in a textbook bait-and-switch pattern every developer should recognize.

TeamPCP compromised LiteLLM through Trivy, weaponizing the skeleton key package that holds every AI app's API keys. The trust chain broke where it mattered most.

The March 2026 backlash against MCP reveals a solo-dev vs team-scale divide, not a protocol failure. Here's why the loudest critics are optimizing for the wrong...
