Managed to scale my legal tech B2B product Tritium ( https://tritium.legal ) through an existing professional network. It's technically B2B but B2C in the sense that it's marketed directly to the end-user, not the enterp

I believe they think water fluoridation is linked it lower IQs, again, rightly or wrongly. I could be mistaken but that’s always seemed pretty clear.

Adverse selection would be a big issue, but actually perhaps if the indemnity only covers defense, an insurer would be willing to take more risk (and have expertise in batting away these claims.)

To be fair, Cornell is public. Edit: my mistake. I’ve always heard it referred to as a “state school” which is true given its land grant status and SUNY affiliation, but it is private.
