I don’t think they’re in trouble, they’re just talking about long term funding because it’s relevant. Can’t expand and get more funding without mentioning that you need it
Of the articles I saw about funding
- one was by Signal, estimating future costs
- one was by that Grayzone guy, misrepresenting where funds were from (said it was CIA lol), how much was being changed (title implied it was entirely CIA funded but it was a past, publicly documented investment by a government program)
I think he’s talking about this, but it’s very clearly just a normal fundraising pitch that doesn’t even hint at a current issue with funding.
This was the article that raised a small stir. Some question the motivation and accuracy of some of the statements. The grabber quote is:
The unprecedented disclosure’s motivation was simple - the platform is rapidly running out of money, and in dire need of donations to stay afloat.
One of their own posts. No motivation to research a link for you
Making an extraordinary claim, and then saying you’re too lazy to provide a source weakens your claim
