So CBS spun them back out as their own corp or did the employee's or someone else buy it from CBS?

Just declaring themselves independent without details doesn't provide much context. I feel like Michael Scott just declared bankruptcy.

Exactly, there’s very little detail here. I’ve been a user for a long time and had no idea they were part of CBS.

Also… independent? Come on, most businesses on Earth are ‘independent’. They don’t need “support”, they’re a business, they need a product to sell.

I’m a big fan of their no-frills service, but I wonder if their ‘independence’ will push them down the road of weird ads and entshitification.


see, to me, it feels like wuphf.com finding a buyer
