jacquesm, you sound like a reasonable man.
Consider that:
- the basis of your very questionable action [1] is precisely the type of taking-shortcuts-due-to-x-factor reasoning that this event is all about.
- the 'perceived cost' of your asking EJ "May I forward your contact info to a man who I fully trust and believe well positioned to address this to all parties' satisfaction?" was apparently deemed [2] to be excessive in the same way the simple prominent and bold statement "AirBnB takes NO responsibilities for actions of either providers or renters".
[1]: forwarding identity to PG.
[2]: you seem like a very smart guy. this can not have been an omission.
[edit: fix notes]
- jacquesm 15y agoIt's simple, I would have probably done that had I thought it through, but the thought that she would object never crossed my mind, my bad. > : forwarding identity to PG. : you seem like a very smart guy. this can not have been an omission. All I passed was her email address and her first name, both of which were very easily found*, and I told her exactly how those were obtained. If you think that I did that purposefully bypassing her permission then I can simply respond with saying that that is not the case, you can believe whatever you wish.
- dollarsigns 15y agoThank you for your explanation. > the thought that she would object never crossed my mind, my bad. I believe you! And here then is the point for all geeks present: Clearly even smart, informed, people make mistakes. The notion of 'buyer beware' is the ethics of hucksters, not Hackers.
