I&#x27;m not sure what role spelling critique has in a conversation about technology providers, but to your second point I do think it&#x27;s reasonable to expect that in public conversations claims be substantiated to a degree relative to their contentiousness. No one expects evidence or citations when you claim that good security is hard, but it&#x27;s not so crazy to hope for even a respected member of the community to back up a stark claim. At the very least it&#x27;s reasonable to ask for substantiation - whether or not the original commenter is comfortable discussing details.
