My take is that they've built something thats super valuable and useful to society, the fact that it pushes the boundaries of current legality does not automatically make the place toxic, it just pushes the world to be slightly different in the future which is a good thing.

- tomhoward 9y agoI've waited almost 24 hours to reply to this, to see if anyone else had other examples to cite. Looks like there's nothing other than the link you posted. To which I say, if the worst anyone has ever come up with is an uncorroborated allegation of morally/legally questionable business practices when one was an adolescent in need of extra funds to help get through college, then I think they're doing just fine.
- pooper 9y agoSure Tom. They're doing just fine.
- tomhoward 9y agoWell, on the basis of solid evidence provided in this subthread, it really does seem like they are. An actual case of illegal or immoral behaviour from any of the founders, from some time during the past 15 years and/or during their adulthood, with corroborated evidence, might be able to disprove this. But none has been forthcoming.
