Your interpretation here is wrong, period. This is a community mailing
list.

I assume here you mean *for-profit* third party services. In any case,
I see no major problem since in the end the people behind the service
in question are long-time MediaWiki contributors.

If we took your argument to its logical conclusion we'd stop linking
("advertising") to Google, etc.

In general I think as long as these types of posts are infrequent and
done by established community members, I see no issue with them.
