Does anyone else find it unfortunate that this entire topic is devoted to the fact that we find that a company being ethical about their business practice is so out of the ordinary, and we're spending a lot of energy guessing what nefarious motivation might lie behind it?
- EmilioMartinez 6y agoIt sounds like the most relevant thing to discuss too, and guessing that is always a good exercise too keep yourself on your toes. Large institutions mask often mask their intentions in ways very difficult to figure out, so maybe a thousand people can put it together. It sounds like misplaced effort only as long as nothing comes out.
- andrewon 6y agoMaking money is the reason why a for-profit business exists. Keep charging customers because they neglect to cancel is unpleasant, but can hardly be qualify as unethical.
- renewiltord 6y agoYeah, HN's classic cynicism is in full effect here. The truth is that companies are made of people and very often the people just want to make a good thing that's nice and works well. My favourite is Gusto. Why is Gusto so good? I only use it twice a year or so, the guy buying it isn't the guy using it, and the principal value in their business is integrations not UX. Well, Gusto is good because they want to be good. I'm happy with that explanation.
