2 days agoIMO, organizations like Mozilla should have their own Mastodon servers with closed sign-ups so that employees and volunteers can have a space to publicly discuss and promote their work in the organization. This should especially true of media organizations. In this case, I am almost sure the guy who was running it just got too busy or lost interest.
Now I’m wondering how much of the price we pay is due to the cost of manufacturing and how much is just a bunch of middle-men driving up prices. Maybe this is just a case of a bunch of shell companies organized for military purposes but I’m going to guess that the practice is relatively normal enough that it didn’t raise any red-flags among the other firms involved.
