god speed to staff on monday, somebody decided to write a screed on twitter with incredibly bad faith takes on the ToS, insult the staff a bunch, and it's doing numbers

like yeah the ToS is pretty badly written but perhaps you could consider that they're three people with one lawyer, and also that this kind of ToS outrage happens literally every 5 minutes and never amounts to anything ("tumblr is going to steal and sell your dbz yaoi fanart!!!!" etc)

@kaezone

also incredibly goofy considering the poster in question literally runs a competitor website lmao

in reply to @kaezone's post:

Like its obviously not ideal but also there are twelve thousand sites on the internet with draconian ToS and they're only enforced .00001% of the time. Also yeah lmfao the fact that the person runs a fucking competing service should be a red flag too

the thing is like, i can kind of understand it with large, for-profit services - there's an inherent distrust all the time there, even though threads about those are typically outrage bait too

but directly insulting your competitor's staff, who are three hardline anti-capitalists, for a ToS that was probably drafted from very standard boilerplate by their One Lawyer, is incredibly low
