Corporate tactic, very secret: Don't self-destruct.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

But if we don’t self-destruct, how do we create value for shareholders?

[–] Jackinopolis@sh.itjust.works 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No shareholders if you aren't publicly owned. Stakeholders, yeah probably, but no shareholders.

You can still have shareholders in a private company, those shares just aren't traded publicly...

I would love to learn more about Valve's actual numbers, but not enough to wish them going public and fucking up the one thing that continues to work as advertised in the world.
