    They’re not, Jesus, what is wrong with you?

    They’re greedy and ambitious, but also cowardly.

    Saying ‘Nintendo’ doesn’t hurt much, the corporation is almost numb to criticism, it knows it will sell games.

    Find the marketing moron responsible and destroy his career, that’s the only way you make a difference.

    Do this enough times, and eventually they become more afraid of the community’s wrath than their ambition to get a promotion by kissing ass.

    Take down a few VPS of marketing, you’re can start influencing them, because they’ll start community outreach before doing shit.

    Corporations are a hard outer shell to protect the sensitive inner meat, don’t attack the shell, take down the inner bits.

      The people change, but the streets are always the same.

        The fear is what matters.

        These careers are everything to them, they will gladly fuck whoever they need to to survive, but if you make them more afraid of the community then they’ll actually try to listen.

        There was a brief period back in the late 2000s/early 2010s when Google listened to people.

        That died by the time I joined, but I worked with people from before and they clearly didn’t give a shit about the customers anymore, it was all internal politics for promotions, you’d never get in trouble for pissing off customers.

        Make them afraid of you, make them fear doing anything to piss you off, otherwise they’ll sell you out for their bosses and shareholders every time.

          Remind them how expensive windows are.
