6. Are some Iconomi idiot fanboys (IIF) paid shills? Absolfuckinglutely
I never posted this on the other thread, because I knew it would be removed...
When Iconomi did that conference in California (or wherever it was), a user popped up in the slack to sing their praises. Claimed he was at the conference, spoke to the team, etc. etc. - saying everything was going to be good.
Posted a couple of video clips which were a minute long each (if that) - despite Jani claiming that the whole presentation would be filmed. It wasn't. However, TaaS managed to upload their presentation in full.
The user linked to a twitter account which was clearly used purely for PR. Had hardly any tweets, and each one was to sing the praises of some company or another, at irregular intervals.
The whole thing looked really sketchy, and that user just vanished and was never seen again.
My point being... yes, there are paid shills. And they're not even clever about it.
Valuable insight, thank you. I was just going with my gut...
