Companies Getting Pissed at FuckedCompany.com
from the too-much dept
Okay, I was one of the original big fans of FuckedCompany.com, but now I think it's just gotten too stupid. You can see the glee in people as they report totally bullshit rumors. To me, that's no fun. I think that it would be a lot more realistic if it had to be tied to verifiable information. It seems I'm not the only one. Companies are now complaining about the website as well. Apparently, a lot of people are reporting rumors just to get points, and it's hurting those companies. Personally, I think FuckedCompany's 15 minutes of fame are up... I admit that plenty of dot coms out there deserve to go down in flames, but I think FuckedCompany has just gotten boring as you have no idea what's real, and what's not.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
