  2. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in criticism but does not provide constructive feedback or engage in dialogue. It could be seen as a personal attack on the company's communication style rather than a substantive critique of specific practices. [-2]
  3. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
