The egregious part of this is they have loads of money in their reserves, ask for donations every year in a misleading way like they’re on the brink of bankruptcy. And now they won’t even recognise their workers union.
This is exactly why I quit donating the past couple years. Bunch of clowns running that organization.
Yes. I wish they would just guarantee hosting of wiki projects for 30+ years... But no they always ask money for their other projects...
I heard the final goal is to amass enough money to live fully off the capital gains.
While the "volunteers" making it happen for real get nothing...
