The claim that Craigslist is far from long-run profit maximizing is pretty dubious. It's compatible with the evidence as far as I can see but not very likely. That claim may just be a nice excuse in one interview. Craigslist has for-profit investors, even if they claim to be hands-off.

Reading that comment left me with an aftertaste of comma.

ETA: Judging by the downvote, this was a bad way of pointing out that the parent comment ended in a comma.
