I think it’s a little unfair to bash him for this.

I don't. He would not have agreed to Facebook's NDA unless he was planning to sell the Fediverse out.

there's an argument that it's better to know rather than not know. i understand the ideological stand against Meta and everything it stands for, but it's easy to judge from the outside looking in. we don't know what he knows

Knowing is useless if you're contractually obligated not to act on that knowledge. When the devil offers a deal, the wise say no, because nothing good can come of it.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
