Sorry, I don't buy it. Man kept overpromising (somebody would say "lying") even after release. Now he's on a publicity stunt for the latest and greatest product, addon, whatever, and cheaply plays the always popular victim card. Nobody says that maybe some angry commenters where "overpromising" too, with their enormous and unpractical threats. The journalist is of course thrilled to expose weirdos -- the correct type of weirdos, so to speak -- to his small court of readers, for outrage and clicks. A deal is made to reciprocal benefit.
