  1. Dear soon-to-be-former user,
  2.  
  3. We've got some fantastic news!  Well, it's great news for us anyway.  You, on
  4. the other hand, are fucked.
  5.  
  6. We've just been acquired by:
  7.  
  8. [ ] Facebook
  9. [ ] Google
  10. [ ] Twitter
  11. [ ] Other: _________________
  12.  
  13. As you are aware, we've always provided a free service, and have never even
  14. tried offering a for-pay option.  This means we've never had any income and
  15. have been operating at a loss for our entire existence.  Since any schoolchild
  16. can see this is unsustainable, it should have been more-or-less obvious to you
  17. from the get-go that we were either going to crap up the site with ads at a
  18. few cents per-click, or that we've always intended to be an acquisition target.
  19. You can do the math on that one.
  20.  
  21. Your personal data which, until just now, was critical to our core business
  22. will be deleted:
  23.  
  24. [ ] Immediately
  25. [ ] Within a week
  26. [ ] Within 30 days
  27.  
  28. We are excited to continue our core mission of connecting people with
  29. solutions at our new home.  Please realize that this is so vague a statement
  30. as to be completely meaningless.  But we just made so much money that at the
  31. moment we genuinely believe this horseshit.  In reality, you will never hear
  32. about us or anything we create ever again.  We are probably going to end up,
  33. like, implementing a new scrollbar for Google Reader or something.
  34.  
  35. Thanks so much for making our business so valuable and enticing to a much
  36. larger company with more money than sense.
  37.  
  38. Now grab your data while you still can and get out of here,
  39.  
  40. Shiny happy Shit.ly management ninjas
  41. Connecting people with solutions
  42. "Shit.ly loves you!"
