    They were sued on Tuesday. If you follow the timeline the question were sent in the week before. This has been going on months. Their lack of answers doesn’t have anything to do with the litigation and the company doesn’t cite litigate as the reason for not answering

      Prior to a public lawsuit, they were probably still in damage control mode and still wouldn’t have disclosed a lot. That’s pretty standard million dollar corporation shit.

        I know a bit about damage control. Carrying on selling the stuff and stonewalling questions would not be in most company’s damage control play books. It does nothing to protect reputation and does actually control any damage.

      It’s definitely not unlikely they knew these class-action suits were in the works long before they were formally filed. A lot of times these are not a surprise to a company with a massive legal team.

        In which case you get your damage control under way before a case is formally bought.
