Do you even understand his point? He is just nice enough to disclose his current employer. He&#x27;s not recommending Linode. Really, all he&#x27;s doing is just asking you to do some research and it needn&#x27;t be Linode, there are plenty of alternatives out there.<p>If we keep attacking the people for their honest disclosures, we&#x27;re only discouraging them from expressing their conflict of interest in the future. Please. Don&#x27;t.
