My belief is that instead of being shareholder focus that RStudio, Inc. is going to be customer and end-user focused. I'm not sure how this is held accountable. I suppose in the near term it would be a public relations form of accountability. I suppose in the future there could be some other forms of accountability such as licensure of software.

Don't all entities-- public benefit corporations or otherwise -- experience "public relations form of accountability"?


Yes of course. Yet usually it's focused on their product or service and profitability. I'm guessing since a public benefit corporation would have a different focus that is more end-user facing.
