While I understand the sentiment, Spez was astroturfing when I left, and appears he still is. If a chunk of users chose to lurk to twist his nipples, let them. It’s their time and and if anyone deserves trolling, it’s the guy who had thousands of alts.

Do you honestly think it’ll hurt their valuation because somebody said something mean about the CEO?

I never said I would do it myself, but it’s their time to waste. Not to mention with everything the way it is, sometimes people have to choose the battles they stand for.
The best way to protest is to not participate

Engagement metrics are up, that’s all that counts.
The real numbers here would be close to $ 0.00001 which would be more than acceptable prank
Each click adds up to a number on a PowerPoint slide presented in investment meetings.
“…and here’s how we’ll monetize it!”
This is more like 1000 checks with 0.001$

Would’ve been hilarious if nobody participated. Just a blank sheet for the entire time.
