Sounds like an extremely one-sided version of an argument. Why should we care about the devs? If the source is open and the software is good, I can tolerate Lin

  The issue is that if you use Tox you support their foundation, the Tox Foundation™ which deals with money in a shady way and deceive their users just in order to grow. I, for moral and ethical principles, don't want to have anything to do with such a thing and believe it's necessary to let people know about the situation. If they couldn't even respect an ex-developer privacy[0] how can we expect them to run a foundation and create a supposedly secure instant messaging?

    That's what you're saying, and how can I expect to trust a troll who copies and pastes stuff over and over again on 4chan?

      A bunch of green accounts suddenly appearing and attacking back also are not very trustworthy.

        It's pretty pathetic indeed how neither side seems to know how to handle an actual argument like adults. I guess that's not too surprising given the project's origins.

    > The issue is that if you use Tox you support their foundation No, you really don't. Your argument would have a lot more ground if you didn't sound like an off-the-street conspiracy theorist. I guess that's what differenciates "conspiracy theorists" from the people who want you to believe vaccines causes autism and aspartame cancer. It's easy to dismiss something as crazy when the messenger sounds batshit insane, regardless of what the message is. The tech community should know, what with Snowden and all.
