This statement seems to be intentionally inaccurate to me. He’s not someone’s contractor, subcontractor or employee, but he still has to have someone he’s communicating with about the project, either at EE, DC or both. Why not state what the situation was? Was he working with EEs team, DC directly or did he switch at some point?

Everyone talked to me and i reported to nobody. DC made only two requests total (color of frame around screen, auto-boot to game instead of menu). EE made no requests but gave me info on hardware as i needed it to write the SW.
How did you get into the project? I’m assuming DEFCON contracted EE and you were contacted by someone later to write the firmware? Was that EE or DEFCON? And to whom did you deliver your firmware code/binaries during development? Did you deliver to EE while they were still contracted by DEFCON and to DEFCON directly after the stop work order?

Sorry for the many questions but you’re the only real source to get more info on this situation here.
