You wrote 254 words on all the evidence that exists without restating any of it nor citing any. Again, this is how conspiracy theories work. When pressed for evidence proponents make process arguments against the debunker(alleging that I'm not taking it seriously, that I haven't googled for evidence myself) and appeals to authority (that there was an undescribed and uncited "article" discussed elsewhere).

None of that is evidence. Bring evidence.

Because it's a large article. Apologies, I figured you could find it, there was no deliberate intention to obfuscate anything. So here's the link. It was discussed on HN a few days ago.
