So there were two parts to impersonating Phillip here:
1) Choose an Id that LOOKS very similar as in philipRna1957, rather than the version with "m".
2) Select an Avatar that is text "Legendary", rather than an actual picture.
Just trying to understand what happened here.........

Every time I run a group buy some a-hole try's to copy my philipma1957 account.

The site isn't loading for me, what's the expected hash/power draw?
Depending on price I may be down for a few myself.
Edit, got the site to load. It all depends on the price.

Actually, I think the engineer's response is:
"The glass is twice as big as it needs to be!"

Any word?
No nothing yet. Hopefully next week as I was told late July for the review model and Mid august for sales.
At least there has not been word of delays so that is one good thing.

I am very interested. I will probably buy several, exact amount is price dependent of course. If these are at all on par with the 4.1 I'll probably get several.
While not strictly on topic, the fraction of a thread exposes something about Bitcoin that I had never thought of before. We all get so wrapped up in "securing the network", and a "51% attack", and "too much centralization", we may have lost sight of the bigger picture.
Maybe the biggest threat is actually making peoples Bitcoin unavailable by impairing the ability to process transactions and use their "money". Even if my wallet is "safe", if I can't freely send and receive Bitcoin, that would really make Bitcoin a much less useful currency wouldn't it?
Sounds kinda like when the villain in the James Bond movie 'Goldfinger' was going render the gold at Fort Knox unusable by exploding a nuclear device. The USA was almost certainly still on the "Gold Standard" at the time, so it might have made sense.

Yeah DDOS would force private closed pool's which surely lead to fucked up shit happening.
Back to the thread no news today. This is to be expected as I was told late July for the demo/review piece.
