Why do people understand this phrase "taking responsibility" as some kind of admitting of fault? Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems neutral and could even be referring to positive future outcomes for the company.
Because the context is that 20% of their employees are now unemployed. The tone of the letter is also "this is a hard but necessary choice" and not "this is great news for dropbox!"
> As CEO, I take full responsibility for this decision and the circumstances that led to it, and I’m truly sorry to those impacted by this change.
