You're right, but "incompetence" seems harsh. Maybe I'm just sensitive today.

Hanlon's Razor: Don't attribute to malice what can be sufficiently explained by stupidity.

I feel like when you're talking corporations, hanlons razor needs to be reversed. Never attribute to stupidity what could be adequately explained by malice. We'll call it Nolnahs razor.

Nolnah's Razor...I like it, got a ring to it!

Corporations are run by stupid humans though.

idk, it seems like with this being a company that generates revenue from "clicks" doing something that essentially makes a person refresh the page 20 times seems like a good decision to make

Big Hanlon fan, but I don't think stupidity is enough to explain why the site behaves that way.

I'm not a fan of Hanlon's Razor, because I feel like people believe it to be some kind of steadfast law of the universe when in reality it's just a "rule of thumb." And honestly not even a great one imo.

I feel like there are a whole lot of bad people that use the concept as cover to help them get away with the heinous shit they do. People who do not deserve the benefit of the doubt.

I consider the razors pseudo logic.
