I'm hoping this is just a stale mail? It'd be weird to have the same discussion here all over again.

Everything the CEO mentioned last time is still applicable.

What's worse is I'm not sure we'll be able to collectively drum up enough outrage to get it reversed this time.

If this is true, I'm just going to delete Triplebyte and all things associated with it. If the practice becomes, "wait until theyve forgotten about it then try again." I dont trust them, and wont again.
The TLDR here is that one of last year's dark patterns was that you could only hide your profile for up to a year. We changed that immediately after last year's thread, and you can now hide it indefinitely, but we didn't retroactively apply that fix (which we'll do now). See top-level comment for more details.
