    Yes, they could’ve get rid of it by, I don’t know, returning it to them. As they promised in writing they would do. That’s theft. Mistakes are human, this was negligence. They knew they made a mistake and doubled down, and made it worse. It’s not trivial, it’s theft and corporate espionage if the prototype landed in the wrong hands. I don’t get how can anyone lick the boots of a hundred million company by minimizing their negligence and unethical actions.

      And why should I care? Billet send in their prototype for some free advertisement and it backfired. The fact that this kind of advertainment is what the whole tech journalism industry runs on is worthy of criticism, but this little fuck up is so utterly irrelevant.
