crowdfunding for big companies is stupid as fuck and shame on you if you support that specific idea, there, I said it.

I have to agree. I think that a giant multibillion dollar conglomerate starting a crowd funding platform for their own devices is really shameful.

I can't believe people actually think this is a good idea. Do people not understand they are giving money to a company and providing them the opportunity to generate revenue with absolutely no risk? I am all for supporting companies that provide great products but there is no way in hell I am funding their R&D so they can turn a profit. Absolutely ridiculous.
