The continuing "David - Goliath" scenarioNow, before we hear more discourse questioning the abundance of unethical behavior and hints of illegalities behind the motivations of all co.s listed on the Venture, you might first consider:
Why is Goliath given the benefit of the doubt for this when history shows that those that hold money and power are to be first questioned. Those that took my cue and did some research in the files of the U.S. Department of Justice years back know exactly what I am referring to.
Besides, common sense dictates that especially since UpRamp, Litle David aka YFI neither had the bargaining power, nor the motivation to tell those they were hoping to engage with, even the smallest of lies. It would have resulted in immediate suicide and curtailment of any further engagements. If you do not believe me, cite one example of YFIs` past technological performance claims that were not eventually validated by the POC and pilot? In other words, from UpRamp to the POC what YFI wrote on the outside of the box the prospective customer found inside. Sorry, not exactly true. YFIs latency as a bonus was discovered to be much lower than expected.
So, think of it this way. CableLabs invited Edgewater to UpRamp to show their members what YFI had, YFI asked why? The members told YFI why? YFI told them how it could solve not only their known problems, but others they were not even aware of, ........and hear we are today. What are YFIs` prospective customers planning to do about it? The POC and pilot are complete, and YFI holds the obvious edge over MLO. ??????????
Who knows what will happen from this point on, unless you are to ask "The Shadow."
