Have you operated a website that gets lots of scammers? I've been responsible for the security on several major e-commerce web applications. Often, you have to make compromising choices, we found that the vast majority of requests over Tor were not converting, in fact I don't think a single visitor via Tor had bought a product (iirc, but I'd have to check to be certain). That combined with the number of fuzzing/strange requests from users via Tor was just too high to consider them to be meaningful traffic. We blocked Tor users outright and it resulted in no change in revenue and a more straight forward security landscape.

According to your blog, you discovered TDD less than a year ago.

As low as it seems to those of you commenting, I'd love to see Jon Mills sit in jail and NEVER join society again. That would be fine with me. I spent years of my life building Motionloft, and it was thrown away but this selfish asshole.

There are a lot more interesting things to come with this case, this is only the beginning. His doctor isn't the only one he has scammed.

Maybe you should identify who you are and your claims against me. That's pretty ridiculous to post here without any supporting details.

Additionally "faceofboe", whom I don't know who you are... the stock certificate I have that was issued by Jon himself has recently been verified by our attorneys to be fake and invalid. I'm not really sure what embezzlement I could have committed, As the CTO, I never had direct access to any of our funds, I didn't have a checking account, a bank card, or the ability to spend the companies money, I'd love for you to show some details of your claims.

I don't think it's a good idea for you to make these sort of statements either.

I didn't get "canned" first of all. I left because Chris and I believed Jon was stealing from the company, but he blocked me from raising my concerns up to our investors citing that it would breach my contract to make communications with anyone outside the company.

The original stock certificates I received from Jon in 2011 have turned out to be completely fraud. Can you please elaborate on how anyone besides Jon Mills embezzled funds from the company? Also who is this anyhow? You can just say your name.
