Did they license it? The CW blog post was vague on that, though they did call out that they “did not work with Apple on this tool”.

In general, trying to get my kids to actually do something. Sometimes I go out and eat tacos.

He can’t really back down now, not after that AMA.
This may well cost him his job, just like happened to Ellen Pao after Victoria was fired.
Makes sense. Everyone was outraged that they were going to be punished for violating the T&Cs, if just because Netflix never really enforced it, but they’re not actually willing to go without.
99.99% don’t really want or understand a federated system. How do you know it’s not hosted on someone’s desktop over DSL? How do you know it will be there tomorrow? How do you know they aren’t modifying the code to do something nefarious?
As long as there’s a “main” instance people will prioritize that.
Won’t matter. Based on recent behavior I’d expect any reasonably large sub to be forcibly reopened by the admins after a couple days. If the current mods won’t cooperate then they’ll be replaced by the hordes who want to go on a power-trip.
It will grow over time. Spez hasn’t COMPLETELY killed Reddit yet so give it a few more weeks…
