> made the business decision

IF they made the decision. There is more and more people there who doesn't even understand the concept of a website.

To them 'being on the Internet' equals being on Facebook/Instagram.

It is hard to make a decision about something you don't even know.




while i would give these businesses the benefit of the doubt, i would also say that the responsibility is on them to know. Ignorance isn't a real defense imho.

It's true that making an independent site to host your updates and info isn't as easy as just posting to facebook/twitter. I understand why a lot of businesses, esp. small ones, don't bother. Each rain drop also don't hold themselves responsible for the flood.
