Your logic still has me completely baffled, but thanks for illuminating a Rossi supporter's thinking by giving us your explanations and logic.Why an up and coming business man with a new type of product should be hamstrung by morality
Re: Dirty tricks
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_tricks
There is an internet business service conducted by persons or companies who are contracted by other companies to either boost their own product or discredit the product of a competitor through positive or negative endorsements paid for by the company who benefits from these endorsements.Dirty tricks are unethical, duplicitous, slanderous or illegal tactics employed to destroy or diminish the effectiveness of political or business opponents. The term "dirty trick" can also be used to refer to an underhanded technique to get ahead of an opponent (such as sabotage or disregarding rules of engagement).
One example is the ploy that the oil industry uses to discredit climate change research.
The nuclear industry also is affected by this tactic.
I suspect that Rossi is slandered by parties that pay people to do so.
Any anonymous party can say what they want without consequence to disadvantage a company or person.
Because of this character of the internet, I always evaluate such opinion as advertisement based on referenced proof provided by the advertisement supporting the accusation or endorsement.
