Message to all tech CEOs
Jan. 10th, 2026 06:44 amCaring about money and shareholder returns is good
We'd all like to live in a world where money is no object but we don't live in that world
I get you have a Hard Job
However just bear in mind that when you alienate users and push them away after one too many braindead decisions you're ultimately going to _lose_ money and whatever goodwill in the process
(Of course, switching costs are high, that's the point, trap people)
Keep in mind also that a lot of your "earning value" seems like fraud in a lot of cases
Be careful you don't become yet another white collar person that ends up in a jail cell, because at least half of you are headed that way
Now, give us back the fucking products we grew up with and enjoyed, before you all ruined them
Thanks
