If you see a fraud and do nothing you are part of the fraud.

it may be anybody. Even somebody at YC wanting to create a background to drop Delve if suppose Delve were shady and they discovered it (i really don't know anything here and am simply speculating, heard about Delve today first time, just googled and read some techcrunch article - it says Delve has 1000 clients - googled employee count - sub-50, and until it is "an Uber for auditors" i have hard time to believe that 50 Silicon Valley people can do even one compliance certification for one client, with AI or without)

I've seen a bunch of people go on random crusades. Investigation is fun and righteous indignation is intoxicating. For certain personality types it's easy to get completely absorbed by a mystery/crime and not even realize how much time you're spending digging into it until the sun rises. Others may be intensely motivated by perceived injustice, dishonesty, or graft. Or they may feel personally cheated.

I don't know who this person is or whether they are legit but it doesn't surprise me that someone would do this.

It looks like a form of covering their ass - they basically (explicitly?) say they've been violating the law and it's Delve's fault.

Yes, the way this is being pushed online seems like there is a competitor involved. If not in the initial disclosure, then in the daily rehashing of it.

It's also still unclear to me how much fraud they actually were involved in, and how much of the fault falls on them. SOC2 Type II and ISO 27001 are not audited by them, but by actual accredited auditors (apparently mainly Accorp and Gradient), which must have been just as complicit/negligent. As customers of Delve are free to chose their auditors I'm wondering how this hasn't blown up earlier.
