I wonder if these leaks are planned? I first became aware
of Snapchat when Zuck offered a Zillion dollars for it.
I thought it was a great idea, but the patent didn't seem
bullet proof? The value is free texts--right? Personally,
I see a future where you have two poor people with second hand smart phones and want to communicate for free. Great--they will use apps like SC, but not necessarily SC? I do see a tech bubble, and these leaks just might be free advertising? The amount of
money throw around seems crazy. The icing on the cake was
when Google bought Nest. I remember the CEO of Honeywell commenting on the Nest buyout. He said something
like, 'They could have bought Honeywell and still have a lot
of money left over'. (Honeywell is everywhere. Their products are in every building I have ever worked in--they
are huge and diversified.) The CEO of Honeywell had a weird
grin on his face when being interviewed--like he was just shocked at the amount of money spent. Anyways, I think we
are being played? I think these leaks are planned. |

Are you suggesting that all this stuff about North Korea was a misdirect, and the real purpose of the Sony hack was to vaguely improve the reputation of Snapchat's CEO? Or perhaps that Snapchat had advanced knowledge of the hack and Evan Spiegel intentionally emailed the head of Sony at the strategically appropriate time?
