I do not see them removing anything from their current recommendations as they probably got a lot of money to list them in there in the first place. It's all about the money, I think.
Do you have any evidence they're getting paid by all that open-source wallets? I'm pretty confident they don't. As far as I remember, bitcoin.org is living off donations.
That would be very disappointing, because they could be making a lot of Bitcoin and helping the Bitcoin economy as well as encouraging the Bitcoin community. But if they choose to "live off of donations" like some Indian mountain guru, instead of developing a business plan and boosting the adoption of Bitcoin, then whatever. I judge not. I know a lot of people in the forum would disagree with me because we are all part of the open-source, charitable Bitcoin community, but if spending money boosts the economy in the current fiat economy, would that not do the same for the Bitcoin economy? I mean they do not have to go full capitalist and accept only the highest bidders, but they could put a price tag for their advertising.
