"those are entirely your words"
Did he put them in quotes? Well then it's not much of a revelation that those are his words.
I emailed her back, with clarification, at 7:21am, telling her that this was wrong. Yes, she knew, for certain, that the facts in her story were wrong, within an hour of it being published.
Isn't it good to know that email of random enthusiast on the internet = TRUTH.
- sidko 13y agoThose are verifyable facts, no one needs to rely on me. The article was modified to change the Bitcoin earnings from 0.0004 to 0.00004. The facts were known by everyone, they weren't a secret and you certainly don't need to rely on anyone's testimony for the same - you can do the math yourself as to what 40 micro Bitcoins evaluate to.
- Steko 13y ago"Those are verifyable facts," And they were verified. I'm sorry it wasn't done on your preferred schedule but that doesn't mean it was a huge conspiracy by the author to mislead the public.
- anigbrowl 13y agoBut how is this misleading on Bitcoin, as you claimed in your headline? If I say that a person earned $6 when they earned $0.60, does that mean I'm making misleading statements about the US dollar? Of course not. To the extent that the article was misleading (ie trivially) it was misleading about the amount paid out for clicking on videos. The fact that payment was made in BTC rather than USD is wholly incidental to that.
