Indeed, the comments regarding paypal are a gross (in my view)
mischaracterization in Brian's platform. See [1] for what I prevsiouly
wrote on that topic. His other comments aren't entirely accurate,
either (in my view).
Sam's comments regarding legal representation and insurance for project
leaders are more on-point: we are working on the former and have not
discussed the latter.
