But it really was how we thought about what we were doing from day one. Our litmus test was always: “If we ran the Internet, would this be the right decision?” Asked that for every technical, business, and policy/legal question we faced. Seemed absurd when it was 8 of us over a nail salon in Palo Alto, but led to a lot of good decisions and long-term thinking.
