As an end-user I believe I am entitled to the freedom to use, modify, and share the software I use. If your business model is incompatible with my values I won’t support you, simple as. I don’t have any problem monetarily supporting developers but not if they disagree with my principles.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this exact argument made against ad-blockers, too.
Irrelevant to the point I’m making. Whether something is open source or not does not impact your freedom to modify it, just the freedom to distribute your modifications.

You do have the freedom to modify the proprietary binary you’re being given. You just can’t distribute your modifications.
