Big Hanlon fan, but I don’t think stupidity is enough to explain why the site behaves that way.

I’m not a fan of Hanlon’s Razor, because I feel like people believe it to be some kind of steadfast law of the universe when in reality it’s just a “rule of thumb.”
I feel like there are a whole lot of bad people that use that concept as cover to help them get away with the heinous shit they do. People who do not deserve the benefit of the doubt.

I feel like when you’re talking corporations, hanlons razor needs to be reversed. Never attribute to stupidity what could be adequately explained by malice. We’ll call it Nolnahs razor.

Corporations are run by stupid humans though.
