Guy behind Beeper fucked Pebble smartwatch users and developers on his way out.
So when Beeper isn't making enough money and he sells it... Will you trust who he sells it to to keep it secure instead of aiming to use data for ads or some shit?
I won't.
So you agree that both sides are doing terrible things and there are no good guys in this situation? Just innocents caught in the middle.

Exactly what meals on wheels is for, but it needs more funding, to be sure.
One of my local food banks has a community dinner once a month. The food isn't anything to write home about, but it's free.

Fully agree. Windows is trash spyware now that doesn't respect user choice.
I was really commenting more on the meme itself.
The sale of Pebble was supposed to include the developers jobs. They found out very late in the game that this wasn't true. He screwed his devs on the way out. Basically said "fuck your job, good luck.". Real shitty way to handle it, imo.
Coupled with the fact that it meant all real support for Pebble was gone as well, it really was about Micigovsky making out with a bunch of money and saying "good luck, I dont actually care what happens" to his devs and the people who bought a Pebble.
The way it shook out just doesn't make me trust him. I think he would do the same thing again, sell to a more scummy third party who will strip Beeper for profit when he isn't making enough money.
I honestly distrust their business model as a successful long term one, based on his past.
