I think criminals need to be prosecuted (e.g. the atrociously blatant Bleen project: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bleen-3d-without-glasses#/ https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bleen-3d-without-glasses#...). Nay, I think criminals need to have their hands cut off in town square.
But incompetence is a risk when you throw money into a Kickstarter/Indiegogo-shaped hole that smells like interesting technology. If it's obsequious and insidious incompetence, lump them in with the hand-less criminals. If they gave it a good long try, had consistent updates, release project IP and open source software, well... That's what we're here for. To try and get ideas off the ground. You're going to lose money at some point in the process. I regularly throw money into all kinds of electronics-shaped holes on Kickstarter and Indiegogo. It happens when the stars don't align that I lose my money. But if they aren't criminals about it, well, shit happens.
