Worst move by a corporation:


Shutting down the imdb boards, which are a unique archive of the obscure and hard-to-find as well as a useful guide to previously unknown gems.

It's appalling that the many users who have made this site the profitable behemoth that it is are being shafted thus -- not even given the option to pay a small fee to use the boards and thus keep them alive.

Certainly one of the worst. They should rot in hell.

I like to blame the over-reliance on social media. People seem to have started to worship it and corporations obviously are looking to exploit it for their own monetary benefits.

Moreover it seems to be have become an accepted practice to implement an unpopular decision by justifying them with puerile arguments and then expecting everyone to fall in line with the herd.
