Facebook’s exec calls WhatsApp co-founder a ‘new standard of low-class’
- shady-lady 8y ago> I find attacking the people and company that made you a billionaire, and went to an unprecedented extent to shield and accommodate you for years, low-class, Facebook didn't make him a billionaire. He & co. made a 19 billion dollar business. Anything after that, facebook can take credit for. But everything right up to the contract signing/announcement can't be attributed to them.
- true_religion 8y agoWell, they are the ones who paid him thus it fits. Until you have a real customer, your product valuation is theoretical... even if your product is a company.
- krageon 8y agoThe troubling sentiment in my opinion is that you can't be critical of the people who pay you a lot of money.
- true_religion 8y agoI do agree. Just because someone is your customer, does not mean they are without fault.
- dwd 8y agoThere was a contract and a vesting period along with stipulated details regarding what happened with WhatsApp for a certain period of time. Is he saying FaceBook should have broken that contract and done whatever, or that they were too accommodating? His comments are either clueless or pure bullshit spin.
