This is a very bad move and will further erode the already declining trust people put in package managers and software distribution channels. This is not transparency - transparency would be asking for user's explicit consent on the first brew invocation that includes this "feature". If this decision is not publicly reverted I will be removing homebrew altogether as it indicates a severe lapse in judgement, good faith or both on the part of the homebrew team.
