A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Wow, this is straight-up fraud. Goes to show that nobody should trust extraordinary claims from closed-source developers.
Yes, this isn't your average "junior engineer introduces minor bug, exposes volnerability" type of problem, this is very clearly "we know very well this is terrible but we're selling it using a bunch of buzzwords, so we couldn't care less"...
Sadly there aren't a lot of meaningful legal mechanisms to sue these types of scams
