since botting is so easy, probably they used a lot of accounts to access data that, in theory, is somewhat public.

quitting doesn’t halt the baby-grinding machine. Big tech can only be stopped from the inside. I even know some people getting hired there exclusively to cause trouble. You should respect their commitment rather than anything else.
