Amazing response from @OpenSourceCollective. They are dropping Persona now! Your voice has power! Community pushback works!

So glad this has resulted in the termination of using Persona. Thank you @OpenSourceCollective for your swift response here.

It's definitely good news and I am relieved that they changed their mind so quickly. It is _not_ amazing, IMO.

Now, I have to wonder why anyone in the org thought that this was a reasonable direction to go with in the first place.

It's not unreasonable to get a backup exit plan in place in the event of any future "mishaps".

But again, yes this is good news.🎉

@kevinbowen I find it amazing that they acted this fast. While I find their wording pretty weak and I wish they posted something more like "Woah we fucked up big time we're sorry" I will take this as a win. And its so rare to have anything good come out of angry posting hell threads. so thats where I get my `amazing` from
