They are surely not the only one to have make mistakes in their life. It's literally a lesson from the Bible: "Let him who is without sin among you, cast the first stone at her." I'm telling on myself too, yeah.

Ok, I see what you mean and I agree with you, it would not be a first time a company pulls this kind of trick. But in this case it's not that the reason does not matter, it's that the reason is censorship/bad faith competitio

It's much better to have _nothing_ than the wrong _something_, since with a wrong _something_ you build assumptions on wrong premises. Much better to accept that we don't know (hopefully temporarily), so that people can keep looki
