As a former quora user, I definitely did not get the impression that they "recognized they crossed the line on that one." The impression I did get however was that the "views feature" was very much a consciously thought out decision, as I would assume most decisions are that are made in the context of building a company with millions of invested dollars in it. I also got the impression that they clung for dear life to that ill-intentioned decision, until their folly was making headlines for one-too-many days, and they made another decision to feign like they had no idea people wouldn't like strangers and friends knowing what they read in their private time. That's just my impression though. As a former quora user.
