Honey, Pie Shopping & Pie Adblock extensions

Honey web browser extension is suspicious and fraudulent that many people have been aware of its unethical purpose such as exploitation of trust, false promises of best coupons and stealing revenue from influencers by hijacking and swapping affiliate links with the ones from the extension creators. Like other fraudulent products that have their shills, the Honey extension has its own defenders, making baseless and cult-ish claims that:

1. They don't find any problem
2. People have no idea how to use it
3. People and content creators are whining about it

The people who are vocal about the extension realized how fraudulent and unethical it is and it's the same for other extensions from its same creators like Pie Shopping & Pie Adblock. MegaLag made a content exposing the unethical business practice from those behind the extension and the amount of red flags. The worse thing coming out of a disowned bastard behavior I saw on Twitter was a miserable interpretation of what MegaLag said. That person misinterpreting in a terminally ill online way must be a professional Twitter attention seeker in my opinion as proven by the account with the blue check. That's not passionate nor creative at all. It's not just influencers whose revenue was stolen by those behind the Honey extension. Even the consumers with that extension installed were cheated with false promises.

About Pie Adblock, it claims that you will get rewarded from the ads you want while it blocks other ads and that is way too good to be true. As suspicious and fraudulent as this extension is from the same creators of Honey extension, the companies behind their respective web browsers should take action to get the Honey and its similar extensions taken down.

SuperSega Scam

Frankly, the project leader behind the SuperSega scam had gone to the newest low recently by sending a screenshot to Lain Lee of the refunding customers' private information which constituted a privacy violation and was against the GDPR law in Europe. Last time before entering the new year which is this year, it looked like we went past the Intellivision Amico roadmap with no new information/update whatsoever like the content creators critical of that product posted one last video about it as if there will be nothing else to rant about due to the saga's inactivity. The SuperSega FPGA saga, it's FILLED with multiple red flags to begin with ranging from the prototype board design being outright questionable on every level to stupid stunts from the fraudulent project leader. A good FPGA designer would design something highly competent and functional with uniqueness and effort in mind.

In the past times, the SuperSega project leader ran his own previous company and scammed the customers who pre-ordered the camera which didn't come out due to the company's bankruptcy. It wasn't a legal business from his actions back then and it isn't a legal business in the present time with SuperSega FPGA.

The worse thing is, the SuperSega project leader had the audacity to ask the refunding customers to go to the bank to ask for charge back. It's kind of like how the scammer would ask the victim to pay the amount in order for the "technical issue" to be resolved for instance which can make the bank suspicious. Anyone with a good brain and an easy look at a counterfeit technical issue can tell the amount of red flags like the UI and the message looking suspicious for instance that they know well that a tech company wouldn't come up with a message box like that. Boldly involving the victims' banks in this had essentially made the SuperSega project leader a mentally ill fraud and I bet that Sega couldn't be anymore furious than that. At this point, there's no way he's going to get away with his criminal acts that they should be investigated.

Other content creators had similar contents discussing the countless amount of red flags SuperSega possessed and that amount kept rising quickly and if there's more news about it, the said amount will increase more. If not, I may have some thoughts and/or answers about how scrapped the SuperSega FPGA console is. It's wrong for its project leader to mess with Sega with the amount of stupid stunts. That console should be functional and well-made even at the prototype/proof of concept stage to begin with, not act like a toy like the disc drive in one of his videos did.

Lastly, where's the Dreamcast FPGA core? It doesn't look like there's one in existence for SuperSega yet. There's already official emulation for Playstation 2, Gamecube & original Xbox as part of backwards compatibility feature and this year, there will be a new compilation from Capcom that emulates the NAOMI/Dreamcast fighting games. As Capcom Fighting Collection 2 isn't out yet, there's no telling if they are arcade or Dreamcast version. So far, the Dreamcast emulation is already good enough for the most part but when it comes to FPGA scene, there still needs to be a piece of hardware that can emulate the 6th-gen consoles well.
