I wonder how successful this approach is versus the “5 free articles a month” approach others use or the “polite request” approach of The Gaurdian. Does anyone know?

- jaggederest 9y agoThe idea that companies are trying to outpace technology firms by acquiring vertical or horizontally related non-technology firms seems silly to me. If the problem is that you can't compete with a technology company, no aggregation of non-technological companies will fix that problem. A bit like building stronger castle walls to fight damage from strategic bombing, to construct a bad metaphor.
