When startup founders face ethical compromises in social impact technology

My co-founder and I launched our social impact startup to democratize access to legal resources, but now we're facing pressure from investors to implement user tracking and data monetization that feels like it undermines our mission. We're both stressed about sustainability but we can't agree on where to draw ethical lines when compromise might mean we can't help anyone at all.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The tension between mission and survival is forcing difficult decisions about what values are negotiable.
