TechCrunch has a new owner, again. Yahoo has sold the tech news site to the private equity firm Regent for an undisclosed sum, according to an announcement on Friday.
Regent is the same company that snapped up Foundry, the firm behind outlets like PCWorld, Macworld, and TechAdvisor on Thursday. Founded in 2005, TechCrunchhas experienced many shakeups in ownership after AOL acquired the site in 2010.
Yahoo was owned by Verizon up until 2021, so it shouldn’t too surprising it’s still around.
You might be surprised to learn that people still pay AOL (which was also part of the Verizon purchase/sale) and is part of Yahoo…
Just because the imaginary friends are passing fiat around to each other doesn’t make any of it less delusional. You may as well learn such trivia about Magic the Gathering or the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Your handle leads me to believe “Magic the Gathering” or “The Catechism” struck a nerve but search me which… or both?

Yeah I’m dismissive of it because cultural hegemony matters and that culture is really trashy and founded on delusion. I didn’t ask for commentary. I was trashing fiat culture.

Openly. You have accurately described my position, despite your requests that I vacate it. 🥰

This kind of behavior is antithetical to Beehaw’s ethos. It’s fine to be dismissive of systems, but ever user here is a person who should be treated with kindness and respect. Please do better in the future.
