TravisCI is a SaaS company that offers Continuous Integration services that started charging open source projects as of 2020, and in 2021 was compromised for credentials to access thousands of projects and organizations.
Criticism
Compromised security

- "Between the 3 Sept and 10 Sept, secure env vars of *all* public @travisci repositories were injected into PR builds. Signing keys, access creds, API tokens.

Pricing Changes
TravisCI had generous free offerings for open-source projects in the past, but by 2021 these have been severely limited and generally are not recommended anymore.
