It was a biiig deal about 10 years ago with the web hoi-polloi. "Moving fast and breaking things" etc.

If you go there today, this popup window appears:
OZY Media was an innovative news and entertainment company focused on profiling “the new and the next” in politics, business, foreign and national affairs, technology, arts and culture – until it was forced to shut down after a New York Times story written by a journalist who, at the time the article was published, maintained a financial interest in OZY competitor BuzzFeed.

This version of OZY.com is a curated version of the original site, showcasing select content. It is owned and operated by OZY Media, Inc.
So....guess what happened to OZY Media's cofounder Carlos Watson.

"BONUS"! Wikipedia still regards ozy.com as a "reliable source".......there are currently 217 links to ozy.com content.

If Ozy goes away, the Wikibunkoids will have 217 more broken links to (someday) deal with. (Actually, I tried a few random ones, and they were broken already....)
