This reminds me of a similar article that might have been posted on here about tech now focusing on hype as the product. https://rys.io/en/180.html#hype-is-the-product > In fact, increasingly, hype is the only thing that counts, as larger and larger chunk of investment money is chasing it – to the detriment of everything else that happens not to bolt the hyped tech onto its unrelated but otherwise solid product or service. > The bubble grows. The line goes up. > Because the hype is the product. |

It kind of reminds me of the money-manking strategy where someone buys a business with a good reputation, debases its products, then profits from the (temporary) price premium it can still charge due to is prior reputation.
These people are well on the way to ruining tech's reputation, but they don't care because they hope to get rich(er) in the process.
