I would like it if they fixed all the bugs and usability issues with the core chat functionality first. They are trying hard to be a good IRC client, but failing at it in fundamental ways.

It also does not sound like they have much experience scanning old printed materials either. There are many little issues that can come up with graphics and text during scanning that can only be corrected by rescanning a page. For example,

Yep, they still run Motorola firmware. I discovered a few months ago Comcast is able to push firmware updates to customer owned modems without permission. So even if the backdoor is not present now there is no way to trust it will never be
