Cory Doctorow<p>They raised more capital, and used that to create a nice place for independent artists, who piled into the platform and provided millions of unpaid hours of creative labor to help the founders increase its value. The founders and their investors turned the company into a <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/PublicBenefitCorporation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PublicBenefitCorporation</span></a> which meant they had an obligation to serve the public benefit. </p><p>12/</p>

For once, the French system is much more self-regulated (but there is also regulation in France of course, when it comes to determine which <a href="https://mastodon.gougere.fr/tags/taxation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>taxation</span></a> regime applies)</p>
