Can someone shed some light on the asian claim? Seems like a really weird thing:

a) to bring up at all b) to bring up in an article about ipo

what does it have to do with the company going public?

If a company trying to go public is being sued by one of its largest customers (i.e. the US federal government), that's pretty material. The USDOJ is (IIRC) trying to ban contracts while the matter is under investigation.

I will shed light on the fact that at one point over 70% of my team were extremely bright and talented Asians and South Indians.

$10 says 'throaway0xff' is, in fact, Alex Karp himself.
