A few words on Jeff Bezos’s post

Yesterday I was asked what was my “opinion” on the now infamous Jeff Bezos post on Medium . I am not going to link or even quote from that post, which by now must have reached 150 Million views. [I’ll gladly offer my site for Jeff to guest post…why does he have to go to Medium ?…There’s a better site…]

Brian Koppelman, the producer of the show Billions, was quick yesterday to put this in his character’s Axe style: ” What’s the point of having fuck you money if you never say fuck you to people blackmailing you over your dick pics. Good for Bezos.”

Brian is wrong as much as he is right. We understand he loves hedge fund billionaires and produced a brilliant show for us.

Number 1: There is no such thing as “fuck you” money.

Number 2: Always hit the dirtbags first, which Bezos did by taking the story into his own hands, revealing it himself before any third-party could do it.

Number 3: Privacy is a very serious issue. Some are wondering how that communication got into the hands of the tabloid. In fact, the photos and files you send over the phones rest on the servers of your service providers, they don’t just vanish into the thin air after you’ve send the text or picture.

Number 4: I’d say that Bezos did a fine job of “Catch and Kill” (at least how I understand it) because once those photos get published if they do, nobody could care less about them. There isn’t anything in there that is not already known. They’re really irrelevant. There will be zero impact from their publication.

Number 5: I wish every man would be half the man Bezos is. Now every man out there wished he had half his money, or 1/1000th of it, but even if they did, they couldn’t handle themselves.

Quote of the Day: “If you’re a man, you either handle yourself or you get handled.” -Miami Vice

I’ll finish quoting Brian again, who was productive on this issue yesterday:

“Fact is, public shame, loss of job, works if we let it. And we usually let it. That’s why I applaud Bezos.”
