Can anyone comment on how these changes are going to impact projects like conda-forge, which use the free compute time to build binaries? My reading is these projects are what's being targeted. Perhaps there are more egregious uses of their servers?
It looks like conda-forge currently uses Travis only for ppc64le builds. I'm not sure if any other free CI services offer PowerPC support - if not, it's likely to impact PowerPC support (also in many other open source projects). However, an IBM blog post in July said they were providing the servers through Travis free for open source projects on GitHub, so possibly they will agree some way to continue to offer it.
