That's my reading of their recent post.
Here are their "full context" screenshots:
Do they not see that you're not supposed to talk in that tone to your employees, or anyone for that matter? There's no hint at respect, no "please do this for me" type requests. Just bossing around like an a-hole or like a bad parent you don't want in your life.
A discussion on encryption would be on the topic of digital privacy. Tone policing an employee of a company none of us even work for is not.
Tone policing? When you're essentially abusing your employees by treating them like that, you're going to get subpar results. People unhappy with their work have no incentive to do it exceptionally. And that's not even getting into the how of Yen's growth strategy also discussed in the recent 404 Media reports that my post and their reply directly tie into.
