Or would you rather 80/20 Thinking were only taking advice from parties who are only interested in monetising privacy?

As has figured before in this thread, perception is relevant. The photographs on the 80/20 site give the impression of validating the business which is fair enough except that this business has its sticky little fingers in something hugely unpopular. If the Earl has advised, then there was no heed. 80/20 T seem more than just an independent in this venture; they seem to be a mouthpiece too. I like to keep both my eyes open.
