How does "Anderson v TikTok/ByteDance" relate to UpTrust?
(continued from the Uptrust slack) Links: https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/judges-rule-big-techs-free-ride-on Hacker News discussion This stuff was hard for me to make sense of. I think writing about it here has helped.... I think where I’m at, from reading just what you wrote and linked, is here: re: integrity: I think what the landlord and ABP are doing is in integrity, unless they’ve tried previously to present themselves as mission-driven, caring first and foremost about the Austin climbing... - sness...
I have a lot of sadness about this thing too. My husband Geof made an interesting comment on it - I was tempted to blame only ABP and the landlord, but he pointed out that Crux must not have advocated for a right of first refusal or other protection in their lease.... You might have a separate limiting belief around money that's getting pinged here, but I think this is an issue with unconscious capitalism. The argument goes that it's simply free market competition.... I also wonder about this. My sense is that there's a limit to how much a high-leverage individual (like a CEO) "deserves" to be compensated for the outcomes of their actions.... That is not necessarily true. It is for many companies, but owners (not publicly-traded companies) can choose to put purpose before profits or to find a balance of the two. As it happens, I've literally written a book telling people how to do that....

I think judge "fairness" based on relative cost: if Ghibli's big enough then they can afford to miss out on millions of dollars, but it's not okay if the same thing happens to a broke studio.... Here’s a synopsis of some bad shit Brian Thompson was up to: Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, faced significant legal challenges prior to his death.... Yeah this is a great distinction, I appreciate it. For the landlord, what I want to say is more it’s a missed opportunity for them to focus more on well-being and community and relationships but ABP has absolutely made their brand out to be community centric, and basically their...

Update: the story gets more dramatic: another climbing gym is taking over the lease! Crux is doing a good job trying not to be too drama-triangly, but man I really hope ABP backs down or works with them somehow bc it’s not high integrity on their part....
