It appears to me that if you are part of a service where people can book you to say and advertise whatever they want, including scams, and you do absolutely no checking of what you say there, that sounds a lot like you are running a service for scammers, and "I didn't know what I said there" should not count as a good justification.
There’s a really blurry line that needs more clarity. When George Clooney tells me he uses Nespresso coffee pods, I don’t entirely believe him. If I found out that he didn’t, I can’t imagine trying to take legal action against him. But Chuck Norris endorsing a cryptocurrency? Should he be required to do due diligence on a client before doing paid advertising for them? That also seems unfeasible. Then what about the K…
It's almost as if marketing is inherently evil.

It is unclear how these messages of support were obtained, but all four celebrities are available to hire through the website Cameo, which allows people to pay high-profile individuals to read out a script for them, for anything from a birthday greeting to a business marketing video. The Norris “shout out” to HyperVerse states that “under the leadership of CEO Steven, HyperVerse will be the leader of metaverse space”…
it's crazy that Wozniak would participate in such a service. Is he running out of money?
Wozniak had like 4 marriages and 3 children, in a state that loves bleeding breadwinners dry in family court ( in fact after 10 years spouse is considered used up and fully depreciated so could be lifelong payouts). This may be a scenario similar to the doctor who killed Michael Jackson, who despite massive income was drowning and did desperate things .

#37I'm not for victim blaming generally, but who puts their money into a company that says this:
>"...create a parallel system of existence that will change how people live, how we interact with people around the world, and even how companies and corporations will conduct business."
What is supposed to mean, other being some thought-terminating word salad to fool less cynical people?

If a person knowingly lies in order to make money, why shouldn't they be legally at fault for committing fraud? Like, fine, we can make allowances for people reasonably believing that they were telling the truth and I understand that there are fuzzy cases, but there are also just objectively factually incorrect statements that were completely obvious to everybody involved.

Marketing is like cryptocurrency, it isn't inherently evil, but... only just.
Re: Chief executive of collapsed crypto fund Hyperverse does not appear to exist
#40> with video messages of support from a clutch of celebrities released on Twitter the following month They really should charge more of these celebrities for endorsing pyramid schemes.
Why? They don't make these deals directly, their agent or business managers do due diligence. And all the DD that's required is "Will my client be paid in full?" None of these celeb endorsements include claims of financial solvency or guaranteed returns.
If it's correct they got them via Cameo, Cameo does all the work, and the customer will agrees to terms that include providing factual information, so you're probably right that there's next to no DD because they know the money will be coming and unless it's some acute reputational risk I assume they'll just trust Cameo to deal with any problems. And presumably, Cameo does a lot of work to convince them they don't need to.
