My take-away, here, is that 8 years ago he could actually form a sentence.

My GF is a pool cleaner and once got written up for sending a customer a picture of dead pigeons that were in their yard.

The customer called the office screaming that she sent the pictures "to be mean."

Turns out these people had pest control out on their property to "remove" all the frogs because the frogs were "keeping them awake at night", and the birds took the bait instead.

Yes, these folks were filthy rich and entitled.

Here's one for you: "an apron" used to be "a napron".

Linguists call this sort of change Rebracketing

If a lack of privacy is like being nude in public, Apple is an expensive bouncer at an expensive club where you take your clothes off for free in front of people who pay apple a cover charge, because Apple promised them you have the biggest tits.

It's kinda flattering, but is it really privacy?

Closed-source software is inherently predatory.

It doesn't matter if you can read the code or not, the only options that respect your freedom are open source.

It doesn't matter to current leadership of reddit how many people it pisses off. For every user of third-party apps, there are now 10 bots and sockpuppet accounts it gets to count as active users.

And that is exactly how you blow the roof off your IPO. Alphabet and Meta have been lying about their user engagement numbers for decades at this point. "Impressions" are all self-reported and they have zero incentive to be honest. Reddit's VC money is begging Spez to get into this game before the IPO. For all they lies they are saying out loud, this is the quiet one.
