Yeah!! We should really demand they provide a public apology for doing such a terrible job with how they communicated and executed this... oh, wait: that's what they did :eyeroll:. Can you stop with the witch hunt? If you want to hate on Docker there are too many actually-legitimate reasons to waste time trying to claim that this apology is somehow "evasive".

Nah, it's this guy sitting in here trying to tell us how we're supposed to think, that it wasn't their fault we were stupid, that's the issue I have. I don't give a flying FUCK about Docker as a company; whether they live or die matters less to me than when I'll have to pee next.
No, you were not "stupid", and no one is claiming that!! In fact, Docker has gone out of their way to publicly apologize for saying something that was so inherently confusing that it led people--including myself, btw, and I don't even like or use Docker--to believe something they did not mean (that public image would be deleted). If they had written an article saying "we're sorry you're so dumb" I'd get your vitriol, but they are actively apologizing for their poor communication and trying to fall on their sword for causing a misunderstanding... what more do you want?!
I didn't see any apology I saw an attempt to reframe the issue because of public backlash
Amen, people are such princesses sometimes...
Demanding human treatment in all circumstances constitutes a healthy outlook on life. Letting organizations get away with shady tactics should never be tolerated in any society. It may not change anything but it's still important for society to speak out against bad policies and bad decisions
