I find these little self-righteous explosions ("How DARE you include a footer link!") to be very tedious. The solution is easy and obvious:

Don't want the footer?

(1) Contact the author and see if you can make an arrangement to remove it, perhaps for a fee as you do with an unbranded vBulletin license.

(2) Uninstall the add-on.

What NOT to do?

(3) Post some self-righteous rant in the coder's thread making an utter fool of yourself by telling everyone how outraged you are.
