I wonder what type of CEO committees green-lights these projects. We gonna buy a project, and then make it kill itself. One obviously can be detached from the fiscal realities so much, that company buzzword policy and virtue signaling are more worth in the context of career survival. Was there ever somebody fired for the tumbler fiasco?

> what type of CEO committees

The kind that doesn't have to bear the consequences of the decision. The CEO is fine, he has a golden parachute no matter what happens. It's the employees who are out of work and unable to find work who end up suffering.

Where furries a substantial source of income or just non-monetizable traffic?

I think big question with these actions should be were there monetizable traffic in first place. That is would the site die either way, and banning of porn is just the most realistic attempt to get more adds available.

That's kinda what happened to Radioshack. The orders from the top took the company in directions that main customer base wasn't interested in. It lost a lot of it's uniqueness and quickly deflated. I worked at one for a few years right before they closed most of their stores. It was pretty sad seeing the store empty more and more often.

You've got questions, we've got cell phones.

Maybe one that wasn't really a user of the product and though it was the right decision for the company? Or someone ran some numbers and came to the conclusion that users who there for the porn didn't bring enough ad revenue? Or that removing the porn could lead to better ad contracts? Or maybe was pushed by the board?
