Do not purchase anything from this company it is a complete scam. https://thescribblepen.com/ Searching around the web I found out they were originally on KickStarter and pulled campaign. Anyone know how to get them taken down or make it well known that it's a scam?

#2Your HN account is less than an hour old and "it is a complete scam" should be at least backed up with more information. Can you share a story or point to a story/proof/evidence?

The terms-of-service are awful.
