    Remember when Humble Bundle was actually a charity and not just a charity-themed storefront owned by IGN?

    Well, technically owned by IGN, a subsidiary of Ziff-Davis, formerly J2 Global, formerly Ziff-Davis. I’m sure firing what was left of the employees with any commitment to the concept of HB and folding the brand under the rest of your e-commerce verticle will have no further adverse effects on the quality or usability of HB as a service.

      Yeah, and when it was about releasing the titles as open source games as well.
