Things hard to differentiate, as it seems:

A software getting a new onwer does not make the software insecure, non-free, or otherwise bad.

A tool getting a new database field does not make the tool a surveillance tool.

---

A new owner changing the license of a software makes the software non-free.

A system operator abusing a database field for surveilannce makes them a supporter of surveillance.
