startups and corporates need to stop selling us lies about forever deals
only this week people have been outraged ( and tweeting about)
- @flickr/@smugmug saying it will delete everyones photos
- @sonos saying it will brick everyones £4000 hifi speakers next month
many years ago there was a mobile phone company (121) that 'sold' mobile phones with free calls 'forever'
FOREVER is a lie there is a word for selling consumers a lie its called a scam
what scams have you been a victim of ? what other things are forever ? even radioactivity has a half life !
FOOTNOTE
BUT i really really hope that uploadme will prove me wrong and that i am a cynic are they really "totally free and unlimited forever" ? would you trust them ? what infinite funding do they have in place to support that claim ? why arent THEY buying flickr and saving everyones photos ?
