    Except DIY kits are not an option to admit in court. They are not admissible. There is a temporary order allowing them to be collected during COVID-19 in California only. It is yet…

    It's interesting to see the only comments defending this startup are from newly created accounts. The article you shared appears to conflict with what this startup is offering. > I…

    It appears that if they are persevering despite putting countless rape victims at risk, they might have bad intentions. From the same article you posted: > Defense attorneys worry …

    First of all, who said this is the #1 rule of business? Lol. Did you write the only book on business? Are you Steven P Jobs? Secondly, revenues can't go to infinity. Not only is in…
