Original Note:
This post falsely implies that WP Engine is or has been “attacking” WordPress, Automattic and/or Matt Mullenweg, of which no (substantial) evidence exists. On the contrary, Mullenweg (through his entities), has been attacking WP Engine and its reputation. https://techcrunch.com/2024/10/10/wordpress-vs-wp-engine-drama-explained/ https://slate.com/technology/2024/10/wordpress-wpengine-matt-mullenweg-drama-explained.html https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/2/24260158/automattic-demand-wp-engine-revenue-wordpress-battle
