M.I.T. Media Lab concealed its relationship with Jeffrey Epstein
It strikes me as inappropriate to suggest that &quot;Anyone seriously tainted by Epstein should step down&quot;.  What does &quot;tainted&quot; mean?  What does &quot;seriously&quot; mean?<p>If &quot;seriously tainted&quot; means &quot;directly linked to Epstein&#x27;s criminal activities,&quot; I&#x27;d be amenable to the suggestion.  But I find it concerning that the writer feels no need to be specific (though he includes vague accusations that Ito visited Epstein&#x27;s private residence).  Frankly, the whole thing seems like a power play to me.  Maybe I&#x27;m being cynical, but it seems to me that Ghiridaradas is exploiting the situation to raise his profile.<p>Epstein had social relationships with many people who likely visited his private residences.  We can&#x27;t throw them all out because most of them are innocent.  The failure point with Epstein was the justice system.  What happened?  Why was he allowed to walk?  I want answers, but I&#x27;m skeptical of a witch hunt aimed at anyone who knew him.
