The way this is written, it seems like this "experiment" would have been okay -- by their standards -- if it had just captured some data... and they will make sure that any other experiments like this DO capture data... and that will somehow make them okay.
The marketing people writing this stuff (I assume) really don't get it, do they?
- mcintyre1994 9y agoI read this more as "this wasn't an experiment and we've updated our procedures so we can't push things that aren't experiments through that channel", and hopefully there are no channels that they would use to push that game in future. They should have explicitly said that there aren't though, because I don't know if I trust them not to find some other channel they think is appropriate next time.
