After VE fiasco I would had expected to see a less full of itself Wikimedia. I was wrong.
The Roman Empire strength was its ability to make Romans out of other peoples. The wiki strenght is making editors and develepers out of netizens. Rome felt before losing its ability. Is wiki losing its one? Will it survive becoming a weird socialnetwork ran by a bunch of employee with no actual experience of daily editing?

Wow this is pretty depressing, although in today's age I cannot say I'm surprised. Corporations have always been about controlling their consumers, and it was really only a matter of time before the WMF fell into that as well. I wonder whether there's any legitimate justification for all of this, or whether it's just a repeat of the VisualEditor fiasco, aka, "the WMF knows best" kind of thing.

You should really watch Jimmy's speech at the Wikimania closing session. You might be surprised.
Cheers!
