Terms of Service

Last Updated: When we remembered this page exists

1. THIS IS A PARODY WEBSITE

Let's get this out of the way first: Foxhold Systems is not a real company. This website is a satirical parody created for entertainment purposes. We are not actually building AGI, selling consciousness-as-a-service, or hiring quantum developers.

Things we're satirizing: tech startup culture, AI hype cycles, unrealistic job requirements, corporate jargon, and the general absurdity of the technology industry.

If you're a real AGI company and you're offended by our portrayal, please consider that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Also, if you've actually achieved AGI, we'd love to chat (see our Contact page, which routes to /dev/null).

2. NO REAL HARM, NO FOUL

We are not responsible for anyone who:

  • ▸ Takes the job postings seriously and applies
  • ▸ Attempts to contact our fictional AGI via the chat page
  • ▸ Experiences existential dread from reading the manifesto
  • ▸ Recognizes their own company in our satire
  • ▸ Spills coffee from laughing too hard
  • ▸ Has an identity crisis because the developer humor hits too close to home
  • ▸ Attempts to implement any "technologies" described here in reality
  • ▸ Submits a contact form expecting an actual response

If you're genuinely offended by tech industry humor, perhaps the problem isn't our website.

3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & FAIR USE

All original creative work on this website is protected by copyright and the universal right to make fun of things.

References to real technologies, companies, or concepts are used in the context of parody and fair use. We're not claiming to own JavaScript, Python, or the concept of technical debt (though we'd like royalties on the latter).

Easter eggs are gifts to the community. Comedy theft is a serious crime in the post-human legal system.

4. DATA COLLECTION (SPOILER: WE DON'T)

The contact forms submit to /dev/null. Job applications vanish into the quantum foam. The chat page operates entirely locally in your browser.

Any data you voluntarily submit will be immediately discarded with the respect and dignity it deserves (i.e., it goes straight to the trash).

We use standard web analytics only. We are pioneers in the field of "not giving a damn about your browsing habits."

5. HOW TO BEHAVE ON OUR FAKE WEBSITE

By using this website, you agree to:

  • ▸ Understand that this is satire
  • ▸ Not attempt to hack our non-existent AGI systems
  • ▸ Laugh, or at minimum acknowledge that we tried
  • ▸ Avoid submitting actual business proposals
  • ▸ Share the humor with fellow developers who need a laugh
  • ▸ Not sue a fictional entity (it won't go well)
  • ▸ Appreciate the elaborate joke for what it is

Consequences for violation: disappointment and a strongly worded blog post about it (that we'll never actually publish).

6. TECHNICAL DISCLAIMERS

The "real-time AGI metrics" on the homepage use JavaScript's Math.random(). Consciousness levels fluctuate based on nothing meaningful. Paradox prevention statistics are entirely fabricated. Coffee dependency metrics are possibly accurate.

Any bugs in this website will not take over the world. Probably.

7. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We reserve the right to update these terms whenever we come up with funnier jokes. Changes will be communicated through adding even more outrageous claims to this page, or by making the job requirements even more impossible.

8. CONTACT INFORMATION

For questions about these terms, visit our Contact page (which routes to /dev/null).

These terms are governed by common sense, fair use doctrine, and the fundamental human right to make fun of things that take themselves too seriously.

Any disputes shall be resolved through trial by comedy, with the funniest argument winning.

It's just a joke, and jokes are supposed to be fun.
