    Kevin Rose and Alexis Ohanian own Digg now. Alexis Ohanian never worked at Digg and Kevin Rose was replaced as CEO by the board in 2010 for non-involvement. It’s still going to be a non-federated for profit platform. But there’s no reason to think they would ruin Pocket or even change it dramatically.
