“all the shady stuff ... things like put it on the front page and in the newsletter and whatnot.”

I really don’t get how you could consider them helping to promote popular campaigns shady. I mean it’s the very point of the entire platform, and how both they and their users and the backers of projects gain value.



All the stuff he describes after that does sound really shady to me, though. Yuck.


Especially the "you can anonymously back yourself for as much as you want". That sounds like fraud to me...
