For one thing let me say I'm glad she was sentenced. She took too much risk with the most precious things we have: our lives. However, I think there are a lot more in silicon valley et cetera who would be guilty of similar things she did. Elon Musk is known for having lied about his degree, for instance. Now I don't know whether that's enough. I really think it's not but it's a question to consider. Didn't someone at Twitter lie about bots as well? At least according to Elon. Holmes did go too far so she was nabbed. But it does beg the question whether this will set a precedent for anyone in the fast-talking fast-failing startup circles trying to 'fake it until you make it' or whether any precedent set will be limited to certain sectors, certain types of individuals et cetera. I guess silicon valley lawyers and startup accelerators will have to do their homework and figure out whether anything should change.
