Pissing people off garners attention, sure. I'm not sure it's good business in the long run, though.
I don't want to say that nice guys finish last, but certainly a big slice of the people at the "top" of the tech world aren't taking the middle ground. Pissing people off seems to correlate with success.
Um, they're proving otherwise. They've pissed off a whole boatload of people, and their customer based is still growing.
It's that old, "it nobody hates you, you aren't doing anything worthwhile".
Or, maybe their bullshit hasn't caught up with them yet.
I agree, but...maybe it is good in the long term. I can conceive of that being the case.
