This whole thing is ridiculous. It makes me both laugh and cry. Selling org to an "unavailable name" private equity firm is just ironic to the extreme.

It's worse than ironic. It's crony capitalism. An inside deal with no benefit to external people, where the transaction will make money for the insiders. It's all hidden because it's corrupt.
