    Looks like WordPress & Automattic are going to exploit us even more than they are already doing.

    We were volunteered, then asked if we didn’t want to volunteer.

    That would be like me saying that I was selling your stuff for my profit, but you could tell me later to *stop* selling my stuff.

    This was not very… nice. What’s worse, it’s been left like a festering sore with no real information for WordPress.com users. As someone who pays, I’m wondering what you’re going to volunteer me for next.

    This is about trust.
