I doubt the engineers make the privacy decisions?
- saagarjha 8y agoSince they write the software, I'm sure they have more than a little sway.
- kevindqc 8y agoDamn I've been working wrong all this time! I didn't know because I write some of the code I get to make the product decisions!
- saagarjha 8y agoI don't want to attack a strawman here, but your comment makes it seem like you think that programmers simply write code that they're told to write, providing no input on the project at all. This isn't true at all: just because you're not a product manager doesn't mean that you don't have a chance to influence the final product; in the extreme case that you're told to essentially "shut up and code", you can exercise your control by walking away from the project if you don't like where it's going.
