It's so rare lately for tech companies to do the Right Thing (tm) that it's pleasantly surprising - even heartwarming - when they do.
(Still wish they'd open source the backend.)
- mikestew 9y agoThe cynic in me says “the right thing” was a last resort. “Let’s float a 35% discount first, see if it flies. If it does, we can still make some profit off this. If not, well, pull out our prepared statement and give them a hub. Won’t hurt to try, and if we have to use plan B, we’ll look like we ‘listen to our customers’”.
- berbec 9y agoSadly, I think it is worse. I see them having gone in with no plan B. I have no doubt, if the internet rage machine didn't go off, Logitech would have continued to be bastards, and only "listened to our customers" in blind panic.
