What's going on at the Wiki Media Foundation, is really worrying.

Important layoffs, are they the playbook of corporates now at the top of the foundation?

Probably income due to deals with AI corps will bring in a growing share. But is that the future we want?

I want to learn more about this. Here's some materials:
