Yes, probably true. SV outsources some of their development in a russian company called Arcadia. Last time I´ve checked the postal address in Florida was a “virtual office” building (you pay them for receiving your post mail, and redirect the phone calls to another number). ---

I’d be surprised if any of the links other than the 2nd was accurate and certainly not because the number was too low. ---

Yup, SV is definitely a virtual company, with numerous subcontractors. I work with a few of them on other teams. 😉 ---

lol, never fear.. there is still the possibility of moderation 😃 However, that would likely only get applied in the case of spam. Since the idea is for this site to be community driven there is recourse for others to object if, they choose, via the “flag” button: > ![image](https://clarionhub-uploads.s3.eu-north-1.amazonaws.com/original/1X/61df467333ac1f980e09dcd5cced94094a8e7240.png) This brings the topic/post to the attention of admins and can be dealt with if necessary according to the guidelines of the community! **Guidelines:** play nice, have discussions, try to be constructive! 🙂 [https://clarionhub.com/faq](https://clarionhub.com/faq) ---

3 employees (only one of whom is a programmer - an arrogant opinionated one, no less) and no office. Clarion .Net was completely outsourced to a Russian company and is now dead due to lack of funds to complete it - yet Bob Z keeps stringing people along because he won’t admit he took peoples money in good faith, and screwed them over on an incomplete and totally useless product. Bob Z is totally clueless as to how to promote Clarion and totally lacking in direction. If it wasn’t for the die-hard Clarionites who are too invested in Clarion to learn something new, it would have died two decades ago. Even third-party developers can afford to hire more employees and rent office space - Bob Z has totally lost the plot and squandered something wonderful. ---

Some interesting bits from an article on [wired.com](http://wired.com) regarding an SEC case: More than two years after a _Wall Street Journal_ exposed potential fraud at blood-testing startup Theranos, many of us have forgotten about the company. The Securities and Exchange Commission has not. “The Theranos story is an important lesson for Silicon Valley,” said Jina Choi, director of the SEC’s San Francisco Regional Office, in a statement. “Innovators who seek to revolutionize and disrupt an industry must tell investors the truth about what their technology can do today, not just what they hope it might do someday.” ---
