Barak resigns as CEO of Six Apart

lj-biz announced about half an hour ago that Barak Berkowitz has resigned as Chairman and CEO of Six Apart.

Well, actually, they announced they have a new CEO, Chris Alden, and only mention Barak's resignation in passing. Imagine that, 6A being indirect and uncommunicative and beating around the bush.

The post is here, with comments disabled, and links to more "information."

I can't believe they went from allowing comments to screening them and then ultimately just disabling them. Way to care about the users...

You seem so surprised.

They don't give a shit about the users. The users are product and should be quiet and accept gratefully what's given them.

I'm actually shocked the comment lockdown didn't happen before this.

I am shocked in the way it played out. Normally, they would have disabled / screened them straight out. But they gradually increased the censorship which portrays badly.

Ah well, worth a try. :P I still need a browser for my DS - the shops only stock the DS lite version, which as I understand it isn't compatible, so it's a case of being lucky enough to find one second hand.
