I'm not normally an activist, but this has outraged me, and as Aaron Tippin would say "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything."
I still have the slightest glimmer of hope that someone in upper management at Adobe will realize this is a huge mistake and change it.
They can still have the cloud, I just want the choice to buy the software.
So I challenge those of you at MAX to go buy a poster board and a sharpie and TELL ADOBE HOW YOU FEEL.
Ideas for your poster are:
ADOBE, Give us a choice!
If I can't buy, we say GOODBYE
Carry them proudly in the lobby tomorrow and Friday as you go to your meetings! Don't be an ant in the Adobe colony, be a leader. Be an innovator. Stand up for what is right, and call them on this decision, because it's wrong.
And please sign the petition!
