Ignore Anything We Said, Says Webvan
from the ah,-now-I-understand-the-quiet-period dept
In response to the problems they had with gun-jumping last week, Webvan is now telling people to ignore any of the public statements they made over the last few weeks. I think that's a new definition of "quiet period": you can say anything you want, so long as you tell everyone to ignore it, and it's probably not true.
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
