An example of the company making the world better (for its investors):

1. Destroy low-maintenance forums and IRC (often fully owned by their owners) by providing 'better' and more convenient services, let them 'own' a virtual channel and a promise (no public history in order to force the creation of more accounts, paid for by investors but that's a detail)

2. discontinue or make free plans unusable in order to force users to pay and bring investors huge profits

3. sell the company and live your life, laughing at the stupidity of the users who now have no history and no money
