I was surprised to see that at no point in the article does the author express any appreciation at the opportunity his service seems to have given its new users. There is no step between hating the situation because of its cost to accepting it because of its potential revenue. I get that the author is acting as an economically reasonable agent but the lack of humanity is jarring.


You’re the one showing a lack of humanity by judging him based on a single blog post.


I found the article pretty distasteful, too. I wonder if he would treat the users with so little respect if they were from a rich white country.
