Cool, I don't believe them.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 44 points 5 days ago

Everyone has learned to keep this private now. If it leaks, that’ll get less attention.

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 18 points 5 days ago

Even if I did, too late you greedy bigots.

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 24 points 3 days ago

They’ll now make a secret agreement.

They aren't sorry they did it, they're just sorry the got caught. They were counting on Americans being much dumber than that. It's kind of insulting, really.

Got caught? They ran a Superbowl ad bragging about it...

They just thought we'd all love the idea for some reason.

Cancel being used to mean 'removing all documentation of it, but keeping the feature'

Their stock valuation relies on leaving partnerships like this open.

Watch the incentives, not the face.

Too late greedy Nazi fucks. You showed your true colors and people will remember.

In a completely unrelated move, Ring will partner with a complete difference company that will pay 20% above what Flock was paying.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago (2 children)

That company's name? Plock. No, it's not just Flock with a Sharpie mark over the "F", trust us!

[–] Airowird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 5 days ago

We here at Phlock are 110% ethical human beings!

[–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 days ago

Sharpie? This smells like Trumps doing..

I'm almost certain it's more like 'cancels partnership but still provides access' and it's the same in every single parallel timeline except for the ones that didn't make a cancel statement.

No, the people buying it are

[–] Asmodeus_Krang@infosec.pub 27 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Fool me once, shame on you.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 22 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 4 points 5 days ago

Can't shoot the shooter

[–] melfie@lemy.lol 25 points 5 days ago

Well, Amazon is really turning over a new leaf and becoming an ethical company now. Guess we can blindly give them our full trust and ignore all of the egregious past behavior.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

Bezos is turning down more obscene money that no other employee will ever see?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA cool story bro

[–] nil@piefed.ca 4 points 5 days ago

Nice transition from a nazi company into a nazi company short of money

[–] Fokeu@lemmy.zip 4 points 5 days ago

Doesn't matter.

[–] zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago

Lol. Now they are partnered inofficially.
