Meanwhile thousands of modders make some money on nexusmods from their Cyberpunk mods. My Cyberpunk mods get me like 200 USD/month in passive income. Why is this guy getting singled out?

Difference between selling your mod rather than getting revenue from ads on the download site.

So why is the download site not being targeted?

(Not arguing that it should be, just continuing OP's logic.)

CDPR's policy is you can have a tip jar but you can't put it behind a paywall. Dude was asking $10/mo on Patreon for access. I imagine he does quite well because he has the same mod for a lot of other games.

Pretty sure he could rerelease it for free and ask for donations.

"he has the same mod" is downplaying it. He's adding VR for games with widely different engines. Same functionality yes, but vastly different codebase.
