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.

To be a little fair (and I am not being the devils advocate here, to be clear) Steve is literally in the position that is required, by definition, to drive shareholder value and take the fall for unpopular changes.
More than likely none of these decisions he’s made recently were by him, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s just being used as a scapegoat by the directors and will be given a golden parachute when he announces he’s resigning “in response” to the community backlash.
