They shouldn't be getting ubiquity stuff.

The fact that they are is something that ubiquity should stop.

But I don't know how much credence to give this report that ubiquity is knowingly acting badly for its own self-interest.

It's plausible.

Companies do it all the time.

But, you know, do with this information what you will.

The link will be in the show notes.

You can read it yourself.

Honestly, I mean, that's the law.

The whole point is that that's the law that you don't get to say, well, we just give it to distributors.

What they do with it after is not our problem is the question is, are they doing enough?

That's what it comes down to.

I mean, I take it seriously, but I just think, like, you don't know where the cause and effect is.

If you're trying to make money shorting a stock and you find a stock that is, like, as you described, Marco, has high volatility, you would look at that and say, is there any way we can make the stock go down?

And one of the ways you can make it go down is revealing true information about a bad thing the company is doing.

It doesn't mean the thing isn't true.

Your motivation for doing it is for you to make money, not because you're just magnanimous and want the world to know about this bad thing.

But, you know, it's like doing negative, you know, research on your political opponent or whatever.

You're doing it because you want to win the race or whatever.

But the information can also be true.
