>Privacy? Their users are companies building software Not sure I follow your logic there. First of all, he's not right. As stated by the compliance officer in that thread, his plan would have violated the GDPR. It also would have vi

No, it was for everyone. They initially conceded not to add it to their enterprise versions (post-backlash), but the intent was always to add it for the rest of us.

Not to mention the fact that the CFO didn't want to even allow opt-out under any circumstances.

They wouldn't have. many devs were against it internally, but they went forward anyway with the opt-out scheme. Why would they go through all that, announce the feature, and then just decide to cancel it?

by EpicEng 7y ago
Their CFO showed that he has little regard for the privacy of their users. I highly doubt that has changed. Many devs and compliance folk were on the right side of this in the MR and feature threads, but they were overruled. I highly doubt

That works for your 1 in a million (10 million? 100 million?) family member, but how about the 85 million who need insulin? Talking about "privilege" seems silly here as you're just prioritizing one person's needs over a

We could argue the merits of paying video games against something like chess club, but that's not the argument I'm making. I'm only saying that, if you stay up until 1-2am, you're going to have a hard time pretty much an

Yes, I imagine an email doesn't undergo the same editorial scrutiny that a published work does. Also, I'm sure Bill is just as "techie" as the rest of us, despite how he refers to the Control Panel.

Yet if it's needed only because they continue to change things around and make basic functions more obscure... why is that a good thing? And I still don't want to spend 20s. You can call that silly, and you're not completely

>There were many more concerns than we expected. Every single one of our concerns was raised by someone in your own MR thread. C'mon, you were just hoping people wouldn't raise too much of a fuss.

Judging from the MR thread it seems that almost everyone was in favor of opt-in except for the CFO.

by EpicEng 7y ago
Judging from the thread posted above, it looks like the people doing the real work actually do give a shit. It's their CFO that's the problem. Unfortunately, he and the investors seem to be calling the shots.

Wow, that was interesting. I'm shocked they make this sort of thing public.

Using revenue is a bit silly. Speaking in terms of the dev budget would make more sense.
