Bitwarden New CEO has extensive M&A, Private equity experience, Removes Transparency from its Motto (www.fastcompany.com)

I find this move concerning, and wish that the Founder had looked for a new CEO that shared his values rather than a Private Equity and Mergers Expert.

Furthermore, the change to the GRIT motto is worrying. Trust is useless without Transparency when it comes to code and security.

Why the fuck does everything that's good turn to shit? This world sucks. This timeline sucks.

VC ruins everything

This is literally a product where a hobbyist tried to fix a niche, and now the VCs arrive.

it's all motivated by the accumulation of wealth = capitalism

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Accumulation of power is a common motive regardless of political system. Money is just one way power gets expressed.

Not claiming our system is perfect by any means. But this thought, to me, always felt like kicking the can down the road.

It's not a timeline. It's just the world we keep making. The only one.
