    Samsung exists. China won't invade any time soon though.

    On the other hand, Summers did lend his credibility to the crypto scam DCG and helped lay the groundwork for the 2008 financial crisis. He gets in over his head sometimes.

    Tiku edited for Valleywag 2013-14 then left. I wouldn't blindly discredit her reporting barring specific complaints.

    I'd still find the added context insightful. They went to the board alleging psychological abuse, so I assume they understood the board would at least consider removing Sam.

    Sounds like speculation again from Sam's camp, honestly. Hard to judge without knowing which way the new board members lean.
