darlingparade··on PIA: Our Merger with Kape Technologies – Addressing Your Concerns
But the title of the thread insinuates that Kape is known for distributing malware, not the company it had acquired. I personally believe that there's a big difference between saying: "PIA bought by company that also acquired a company known for distributing malware" and straight out claiming that PIA's acquirer distributes or has distributed malware at some point in time.

I believe that the title should be changed because: "In late 2012 Sagi acquired the start-up company Crossrider for $US 37M." [1]

That alone tells you that Kape's (or rather, Crossrider's current owner) had nothing to do with their past actions, and could be therefore considered libel.

Moreover, post that someone linked with all the proof is pretty much a lot of FUD, and while I'm not happy with the sale, I fail to see any actual proof being brought up.
