In reply to Johnny.

George, do you just believe if you keep telling us again and again that it's okay for Automattic to autoactivate new modules in Jetpack, it's okay to send all your data through Wordpress.com servers, it's okay to make your entire website dependent on a fake free service (Automattic can cut people off or start charging any time they want, as Automattic notably have done with Akismet - after wiping out every other competitor via the free service), someone will believe you?

Thank you for the link to the other conversation about Jetpack including how and why Automattic is not playing on a level playing field.

Hopefully you can find time for a critical reading course to help you with words like "unfounded". In each case, I've provided specific examples to back my distaste for Jetpack's borg approach.

Apparently resistance is futile. Where is Hugh when you need him?
