The Intercept did an in-depth series on this: https://theintercept.com/2015/08/11/dupont-chemistry-deception/ https://theintercept.com/2015/08/11/dupont-chemistry-decepti... Truly despicable behavior from one of the world's largest and oldest companies.

I still see many houses and new construction wrapped in Tyvek material. We are fucked.

  Tyvek is made from polyethylene. No fluorocarbons in there.

  There’s nothing wrong/concerning with Tyvek housewrap, unless you just don’t like the idea of using DuPont products in general.

The original video footage which belongs to the article series is frightening https://vimeo.com/136529193 https://vimeo.com/136529193

It's there a reason you don't mention the company, which I assume is DuPont, by name. So often I see comments "this company is awful", or whatever, which don't even refer to the name of the company; which I find most strange.

  I assume it's because they said that immediately after a link featuring "dupont-chemistry-deception" making it seem like the previous sentence called them out by name. The link then got shortened when posted, and whether it says "dupont" depends on how you view the post.
