Early Clover adopters aren't just pissed that the company 'sold out' to the man or that Starbucks has a new monopoly: they are also mourning the loss of CloverNet. The website, which will be shut down 60 days after the sale, collected data from every Clover owner in the country and was a integral tool in learning how to use the machine: "They helped the company compile data about sales, about how the machines are holding up in the field and which specific times, doses and temperatures showcased individual coffees best. Now that information is something that Starbucks — a direct competitor to every small cafe in the country — has ownership of, and soon it will no longer be available to original Clover users."
