    There could be if people had / acted in accordance with any kind of principles of self respect. They’re ants in some rich mega douche’s ant farm, donating their time and energy to their captor, but refuse to make the fucking 6-inch journey to a free ant hill beside them.

    Almost all of us are here because of the API bullshit. Those who stayed did us a favour, I reckon.
