Ok, let us just for the sake of discussion assume VLDI could have stopped the hack. Of course we do not know that for sure, but if VP could have stopped the hack, a smart CEO would in the front door to demo the software and its capabilities ASAP. Yes we hear about hacks all the time and there are probably many more we do not hear about. So if VLDI is so great and Bruce can prove it could have prevented the hack bruce should be in the front door every time one of these hacks occurs, showing how fantastic VP is. Maybe then someone would come on board.
