Am furious about @internetsociety's decision to sell .org and PIR to a private equity firm.
They sold off a public interest piece of the Internet to soulless capital.
This story represents what has happened to the Internet at large.
That is why we should resist it.

@internetsociety I don't fall for the argument that says that domain sales are stabilizing, and @internetsociety's future needs to be secured: growth is not necessarily needed.
This is a capitalist fallacy that has seriously harmed the Internet, the environment, and society.

@internetsociety And remember, @internetsociety is receiving 75 million per year from PIR, is it not like they are about to go bankrupt or anything.
The sale of .org should be annulled and the leadership of ISOC should be held to account for this.

@internetsociety The ISOC leadership not just betrayed its own mission, but also all .org customers.
The sole motivation is to indefinitely financially sustain ISOC.
ISOC exists to sustain a healthy, public interest Internet. The Internet does not exist to sustain a wealthy ISOC !
