BjornW As a former active WordPress developer & contributor to code & community I’m saddened by the recent developments at WordPress.com Automattic’s tone-deaf decision to offer their customers’ contents to “selected” AI partners, unless they opt-out (a user hostile ‘solution’), comes across as a classic techbro money grab scheme. It is going against everything the opensource project should & has stand for. This questionable business decision by Automattic and thus Matt Mullenweg has considerable negative impact on the opensource project. It should have consequences for Matt Mullenweg’s continued involvement in the decision-making process of the WordPress opensource project.
