As a voice of convervatism, make sure you know what the situation reguarding
defamition. If you cannot prove that what they are saying is crap, make sure
you remain inside the bounds of not abusing them without reason in a public
forum. In CodherPlunks is probably a suitable forum for bad mouthing the
technical details we cannot be told about :-), but as for saying in public
that the company is going to break the law.....

I could also say that half the Bay Area seems to be obsesed with IPOs of
startups. It is a case of buyer beware. If you get involved in that which
you do not understand, expect to be burnt.

        pseudo science techno babble so popular in the tabloids and fringe
        religion movements with what is currently happening in the crypto
        marketing field).
