The trick is you have to pretend that you’re actually a “tech company” to avoid all the regulations that apply to companies that are honest about what business they’re in.

    I’m actually reminded of the time James Randi refused to debunk some tech bro’s astrology app, despite him being gung ho about how well it worked… With the reason Randi gave being that because it was an app and claimed to have math behind it, it was too close to the realm of science to count as anything supernatural… Even though there’s virtually no difference between this and a horoscope in the paper, but he was fooled by there being a phone involved. So the guy DID NOT get debunked or even tested despite being full of shit he was, he didn’t get tested or in the running for the million, but he got Randi’s seal of approval… That’s a task failed successfully moment right there.
    
    God JREF’s reputation is so overblown.
    
    Remember: You are not immune to propaganda, you will accept anything if it’s presented in a way that seems plausible yet magical enough to you.

Pretending is easy. Make an app for phones. Always talk in tech buzz words.

We’re not a hotel company. We’re a company that leverages internet connectivity to connect potential customers with needed accommodation. We’re creating our own AI to boost…mumbles with more tech buzzwords.
