You say it like it's a bad thing to find ways to make your employer more profitable in the long term.
Adobe is not a non-profit organization. Profits are the sole reason of their existence.
If you think their products are too expensive, don't buy them. It's not like there's some human right saying that "everybody must be provided access to professionally grade design and publishing software".
PS: I'm not affiliated with Afobe in any way. Besides pdf readers I don't know of using any of their software anymore (not even flash, because I have the flash plugins disabled in my browsers)
- tete 9y agoI agree with your statement, but don't think it counters the post you are responding to. Nevertheless profits being the sole reason for their existence doesn't put anyone or anything into a good light. Even if making per profit isn't a bad thing. At least in the current day and age that appears to be true. Probably too philosophical for this thread though. ;) Actually just wanted to say that giving background about the author still is interesting. How you value them morally is a different thing.

Profits are the sole reason of their existence. http://www.adobe.com/corporate-responsibility.html http://www.adobe.com/corporate-responsibility.html says otherwise. Either the company is not following what they preach or they are "bending the truth" in that page. Both options are not good.
