> everything is untrue, that's why we have changed every aspect of our business in the past 96 hours

I gotta say I'm convinced

They look guilty in that picture

There is an old Dutch saying which goes: "Trust comes afoot and leaves on horseback". When you're in the compliance business you cannot fumble this ball, but you have.

> we built on an Apache 2.0 open-source repository, which explicitly permits commercial use, and significantly rebuilt it for compliance use cases

This framing is misleading. Apache 2.0 permits commercial use, but it also requires you to retain copyright/attribution notices, include the license, and add prominent notices to modified files.

Also hard to square “the allegations are fabricated” with simultaneously offering free re-audits, halting audit automation, and rebuilding the entire auditor network.

I don’t understand the screenshot, the “attacker” sent that to customers? Or Delve created this screenshot as a dramatic reenactment? The post is not clear

their entire defense is "we are totally trustworthy! it's not our fault some 'bad client' opened and shared a spreadsheet we negligently used as a publicly accessible database of our fraud"

It's important to note that pathological liars don't stop lying. In fact, when they're caught lying red-handed, they usually double down and lie even more.

They sound like me when I was learning SOC2. Ooh now I think I sorta get it. Lucky for me I was a mere employee and had consultants helping me.

At the bottom of the page, I see an ad claiming “don't let manual compliance slow you down.” That really seems tone deaf lol

There are numerous contradictions in their messaging. They admit the data matches, but is being misconstrued, but they're going to rebuild their network and reaudit customers anyway. I can only assume they've received advice on this poorly thought out message delivery from the same place they received that awkward gesture and body language coaching. I'm sorry to say that the combination comes across as insincere.
