Cool, I don't believe them.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 34 points 2 months ago

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

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 14 points 2 months ago

Even if I did, too late you greedy bigots.

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

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.

[–] Deestan@lemmy.world 64 points 2 months ago

Their stock valuation relies on leaving partnerships like this open.

Watch the incentives, not the face.

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 10 points 2 months 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 6 points 2 months ago

We here at Phlock are 110% ethical human beings!

[–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

Sharpie? This smells like Trumps doing..

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

Fool me once, shame on you.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 2 points 2 months ago

Can't shoot the shooter

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

They’ll now make a secret agreement.

[–] melfie@lemy.lol 19 points 2 months 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.

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago

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.

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

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA cool story bro

[–] zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

Lol. Now they are partnered inofficially.

[–] Fokeu@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

Doesn't matter.

[–] nil@piefed.ca 3 points 2 months ago

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