>The settlement resolves claims brought by 29 U.S. states, and will end a federal trial that had been one of the highest-profile tests yet of allegations that social media companies harmed young users.
>Wednesday's settlement also resolves lawsuits by California, Illinois, New Mexico and Washington, D.C., over privacy claims related to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, where the consulting firm collected personal data of millions of Facebook users. Those states will receive $459.3 million to resolve those lawsuits.
For example, Coinbase requires logging in with Plaid to... setup auto-pay for their credit card statements. No way to just provide account/routing numbers the good ole way.
There's lots of issues with Plaid but one big one is that banks (e.g big ones like BofA) can lock your account due to suspicious login with Plaid.
Claude Opus failed to solve after trying for a while.
It's unfortunate Auth0 was acquired by them. Have used it from the beginning and it used to be a great product before the Okta acq. Now it's just constant sales emails, expensive pricing, not much new feature launches, most features are very enterprise focused, bunch of bugs, frequent outages.

- Slack is so easy and fun to use that we use it for things we shouldn't be (fun channels, fun integrations). It creates too much noise and hard to extract signal. It ends up being distracting past 100+ people company.
- Teams is so bad that people try not to use it. It forces you to use it minimally because everything is terrible. It actually ends up being more productive than Slack.
There are many dependencies in the software supply chain that are maintained by a single person (open source or not),so it seems silly to default assume malicious intent for employees of a software vendor with a good reputation.
There are bad actors that no SOC2 control would catch, and there are good actors (the default) where no SOC2 control affect their behavior.
SOC2 is never part of my decision making, rather, I carefully study the company and product offerings to decide if right fit.
(This is coming from someone who goes thru an annual SOC2 audit)
Rippling as a product reminds of Hubspot. It’s cheap/free for small companies, has many checkbox-list of features, looks good conceptually, but doesn’t actually do anything well.
It’s “good enough” initially but most companies end up unbundling Rippling as they get bigger.
Oh support- sometimes it has taken us weeks to hear back.
We probably won’t move away from it but I know there’s a better alternative for every module they provide.
My point is that it is feature clearly people appreciated, not a dark UX pattern.
On the other hand, things like deployment and monitoring were so trivial and magic.
This was circa 2015.
