Look I'm not going to pretend security through obscurity is good security, but it is security all the same. Posting the source code for all these sorts of shoddily made, half baked pieces of garbage is a bad idea. Everything you own is full of unpatched, undiscovered vulnerabilities that are there because nobody really has the time, inclination, or ability to look for them. But you tell everyone "hey here's this device i'm not going to ever provide security updates for also here's every line of code on the thing, enjoy" and suddenly that's going to be a problem. Imagine if you mandated that, not just for spotify's garbage thing, (which is connected to your phone), but for something like the electronics in a car. There should really always be a facility to unlock the bootloader and do whatever you want, requiring you to have physical access, but turning every single piece of abandonware into a gaping pile of vulnerabilities is a bad idea.
