Firing mods and stealing content: Stack Exchange cooperating with community? (meta.stackexchange.com)

This combined with the new CEO and the previous issue regarding third-party ads fingerprinting users most likely means they're circling the drain and are desperately trying to save the ship.

It's a shame as I feel they had a decent shot at profit with Careers/Jobs as well as running their own developer-focused ad network with vetted ads and no tracking.
