I don't see any links to those hordes of documents in this response. Could you please provide some, like you claim to have?

just gonna guess here. Were you “invited” because you had signed up with Codesmith under an alias and then received a standard event invite? because it doesn’t sound like anyone at Codesmith would be personally inviting you.

Is it a hit piece? It’s well argued and comes with sources, which is more than you’ve offered.
