In another quote from the article:
"Negroponte pressed on: in the fundraising world, he said, these types of occurrences were not out of the ordinary, and it shouldn’t be reason enough to cut off business relationships."
Welcome to today.

- pdfileisle 7y agoHave a little sympathy for Negroponte. He's probably seen a lot of underage girls on sites like PornHub so it's not really that "big of a deal" for him anymore. If a few underage girls get screwed (quite literally) in order for other (more worthy girls) to attend the Media Lab "tuition free" ... well the ends justifies the means. BTW, the quality of the research at Media Lab is so low (they basically "fluff up" other people's ideas and hard work) that they shouldn't be charging tuition anyway. I was always told during my years at MIT that the Media Lab was for misfits who couldn't hack it in the standard core curriculum. Apparently as we've all now learned, it's also for perverts too.
