Notepad++ just lost the trust of our company due to their updater hack by the Chinese government. Everyone was instructed to uninstall it and move to alternate options.
Are you sure you still want to support them?

Yes, because if you read the release it was a fault at the underlying provider which they were already moving away form. Also, you can not stop a proper state sponsored threat actor so leaving an org because they were hit is stupid when they are open about what happened and how they have made actual changes to minimise it from happening again.
