Justin never invites me in when he brings the cool folks in! Dang it...

I will look forward to that blog post then, hopefully it has more details than this one.

EDIT nvm just saw your other comment.

Is this the black box folks you mentioned?

It's the dark factory people, yeah: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46739117#46801848

You don't see why a company would gain to invite bloggers that will happily write positively about them? Talk about a conflict of interest, the FTC should ban companies from doing this.

Someone call the FTC! John Gruber has gone to a private event hosted by Apple. In fact, he's done it more than once! The scoundrel must be locked up.

Are you saying that because I have a blog I should be banned from going to meetings or demos of anything, for any reason?

This reads like a total joke.
