Ripple’s chief technology official David Schwartz confirmed that he had previously pointed fan questions for the Black Sabbath and filtered the responses of recently died rock legend Ozzy Osbourne on what it meant to be a true Q&A to fans – an experience that he was repenting.
“I was fooled,” Swartz Says On an x post on Thursday.
“To me personally, it was a frustration, but in all it was a success,” recalled his time on the webmaster when, as an employee, he was assigned to type responses to Fan’s questions for Osbourne – who died Tuesday at the age of 76 – and the rest of the members of the Black Sabbath band using company conference software.
Fans have no interest in anyone but osbourne
As a self-expressed fast typist, Schwartz explained Asking him to talk to band members over the phone, relay fans questions, and typing their responses in real time.
But it quickly became clear to Schwartz that fans have no interest in other people in the band; Each question is for Osbourne. “I specifically asked the moderators to ask me questions that were not for Ozzy. Nothing,” he said.
Schwartz maintains a set of pre-written “canned questions” at hand in the case of technical issues, which he eventually used to avoid leaving other band members.
“I passed a question to each of the other members of the band in a round. And I mixed what I could do with what they said in the answer from their manager,” Schwartz said.
“At this time, I felt really bad for the whole thing. It wasn’t the real relationship with the celebrities I wanted to be and I tried to do it,” he said, and just added that “two or three” legitimate questions of the fan have done it in the band.
Schwartz announced that he had cleaned Osbourne’s answers
Schwartz also admitted that he had removed the vulgarity from Osbourne’s answers:
“Ozzy’s answer features C-word a lot. The bad C-word. The one that Americans don’t want to say. It’s pretty close to the single word I can hear clearly.”
“I type Ozzy’s answer closer to my best, maybe it left because of the poor connection quality. I checked the C-words,” he added.
