my adhd domain blocker just lifted for the weekend and this was the first thing I saw

I wonder if there is commentary value in the world of fucked brands and researching unfucked brands and potential conflicts with key people in those companies.

If I knew the ceo of proton was a bitcoin maxi it would have been a fun journey to now

yeah, that was the inspiration. I think it would be fun to call out companies which are existing despite their fucked brand. I guess it would be part of my pet theory that brand has been superseded by ux as the real commodity of tech capitalism
