So the aim is to get to be part of the standards set by the industry. Everywhere you read and every company/analyst is saying that the big major change in wifi is wifi 7! The release date for wifi 7 standards is now withing the next few months if these guys miss this boat it is over. If their tech is not part of MLO all they did is scam us ! If their tech is part of MLO the next thing to check is as important: did they manage to get a decent commercial agreement for their tech in terms of $ and shareholder value ? Time will tell! What's 8 months comparine to 12 years? Lets enjoy summer for now 

I agree that the following 8 month period will most likely represent the last major chance for YFI to commercialize their tech.  However, I believe an explanation for the preceding years activities if this does not occur can be described quite so simply as a "scam."

A comprehensive study of the real world on going activities of this industry will yield many questions demanding answers.

A convenient start was when YFI first stated that they were honored to be part of the Cablelabs family; all following working group activities including within the WBA; and right up to the webinar with LG`s endorsement. For YFI to fail now, and more importantly describe it as a scam, would therefore be an attack on everyone else described within the above as being complicit in what would also be construed as a premeditated scam.  Then inversely you award existing incumbents the badge of not only implicit honesty just by being in the position they are in, but possessing the knowledge and tools necessary to convict YFI of being a scam. 

So, 2 questions. If by your logic YFI is a scam if their tech isn`t commercialized within 8 months, why did not the industry provide the necessary data to prove this years ago? To date I have discovered no data to support such a conclusion? Ironically, the first evidence of formal testing in this regard was conducted by LG and the released results suggested the opposite. In the meantime, who you imply know the truth are conveniently silent. Sorry, the game you describe is a little more complicated than that.
