WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg has posted a full response to the attempts by Andy Baio of Waxy.org and others to assassinate his character over the mistaken acceptance of some shady attempts to manipulate Google.
In the post he details the reasoning behind accepting the payments, where the money went, and responds to the personal nature of many of the attacks that Baio’s post caused.
In case you missed it, Matt said I wrote “a fair and informative article” in comment #120. And in his entry, he said that “it’s very rude to assume evil or malicious intentions of someone who has been exactly the opposite.”
If Matt doesn’t have a problem with my coverage of the story, I don’t see why you should.
