I know of companies that employ hundreds of people to do "webutation" or "guerilla marketing". That involves creating a bunch of accounts on social networks (reddit as well) and posting positive info about their product

What about blameless post mortems in many well run companies? Either internally or even externally they are basically admiting mistakes.

I would say it's poking fun, rather than snarky. Also, even if you consider it snarky, it's more than "just" snarky. It has some insight in it.

I did that in my comment by rephrasing slingnow. That I think was the productive bit of their comment. I think the unproductive bit was that dawnerd just wanted to vent and was not asking for feedback, so giving them feedback... is unproduc

Not sure why it's a bad example. 35 years later it did not "just re-merged", it still is in a few pieces. You need to think about how the present would look like if there was no breaking up. And that present likely would not

In the past big monopolies have been dismantled. See for example AT&T. Google, Facebook, Amazon, they exist for a relatively short period of time. Don't you think they will also be dismantled in the next 10-30 years?

Not sure why this is being downvoted? It makes sense to me that ByteDance wants non-China banks to have skin in the game and share the risk that way.
