This! Several of my github repos now have a disclaimer that says "if this doesn't work, don't send me insulting emails"
It's especially bad if a big company links to you from their tutorial or in their add-on catalogue because then some of their customers will feel like your open source is part of the commercial offering that they bought. So then you're forced to do open source support for entitled aholes and someone else is cashing in on your work.

I would certainly not feel forced to support them.
