I'm a little concerned that at no point in the article does the author use the term "pyramid scheme."

- dorothyat40 7y agoLike it's co-opting this soft language that the industry is pushing to distance itself from a pyramid scheme, which is very much is?
- BryanBigs 7y agoThis is a guess, but a pyramid scheme is illegal, and so calling 'legal' companies by the term might be considered slander. Since some of these companies live to bully through the court system, it's probably a conscious decision to avoid the term. Just a guess though.
