People criticized her coverage of Waytools because they did not want to see a macrumors reporter getting publicly used and blatantly lied to and thus discredited as a journalist. 

Actually, they attacked her as well.

I didn't read anything I would particularly construe as an attack. I saw people criticizing a professional journalist and cautioning her that she appeared to possibly be either intentionally or unintentionally acting as a pawn or shill for a very disreputable lying company, and people were concerned about that. The reporters reply was very straightforward and analytical about the criticism. There really was not a lot of drama, not the way the narcissistic Waytools_Support actor Mark Knighton wants to spin it.

And you know what, as far as this word: 'attack'. Its BS. We are all grownups. The world is a tough place. 'Attacking' people is not in and of itself a bad thing, particularly if the attack is well deserved or draws well deserved attention to an issue that needs awareness.

People react negatively to lies and propaganda. They want to attack it.

Waytools has brought all of the negativity that orbits their sphere upon themselves, and you can tell how bad it is because there is so much negativity surrounding this company it has collapsed into a black hole of lies and deceit.

They lie. They have the money.

Despite the wild assertions, FYI, Mr. Knighton is, and continues to be, an investor - not a profit participant.

Profits will come after general release.  That mechanism keeps customers and management objectives in sync and well-aligned.

Collecting millions of dollars from people and then never providing them any product or service in exchange for their currency is quite profitable, is it not?

Was this a Kickstarter or Indiegogo project? No.
Was this product advertised from the outset as being a pre-order with a lengthy delay? No.
Did WayTools invite people to invest in the company acting as individual investors? No.
Who paid WayTools millions of dollars? Thousands of individual customers.
Did WayTools claim the product was ready to ship worldwide in 2015? Yes.
Did WayTools subsequently set a variety of certain timeframes for release of the product? Yes, dozens and dozens of times.
Did WayTools ever meet any deadline it broadcast to its customers? No.
Which customers have received a finished product after 4+ years? None of them.
How many years have passed since WayTools first collected money for a product never shipped? 4+ years
Who has the money? WayTools has the money.
Who owns and operates WayTools? Mark "The Investor Not Profit Participant" Knighton
Who has the money? Mark Knighton has the money.

Earlier you paraphrased the words of others, and revised their meaning. Now you inform us that is gaslighting ('the technique').

Earlier in this thread you wrote that you had not previously researched the word or the concept, and yet now, with your Wikipedia degree in hand, you discover yourself to be an expert on the subject.

You are so twisted Mark. I laugh out loud at the way you project your insanity on to others and shamelessly broadcast it to the public. You are a disaster.

Who has all the customers money? Mark has the money.

Who has not shipped a product to thousands of customers after collecting millions of dollars 4+ years ago? Mark Knighton of Waytools.

Gaslight that buddy.

Truly moral and ethical people care deeply about their reputations. You can tell when you have met such people. They are careful with their words. They listen. They are reasonable. They oblige other reasonable people. If they disagree, they are principled about it, and seek common ground. They really truly care what other people think about them. Their reputation as a good person, an honest person, a pragmatic person, a reasonable person - is very important to them.

These kinds of people are actually not hard to find. Good people are not rare, despite media cliches to the contrary. You just have to know where to look for them.

Mark Knighton is not one of these people. Mark Knighton has The Money.

4+ years. No product. He still has all the money. Mark Knighton said _______ and it was a blatant falsehood. You can fill in the blank with almost anything Mark Knighton was promised his customers, and it was false. 

A question to all you customers who paid 4+ years ago, did you receive a product or service in exchange for the money you gave Mark Knighton? 

Who has your money? Mark Knighton of WayTools has your money.

The parallels to now, on this thread, are striking.  The repetitive, maniacal crusade we see here now by a supposed consumer, who spends full time labor camping on the topic.  This is way out of proportion for a 99 dollar accessory, that he proclaims is a non-product, and won’t ship.  

It begs the question of who would do this, and why?  Who would put so much cumulative resource toward telling people not to order something.  

Why does a cop walk the street looking for bad guys? Why does a prosecutor spend his life trying to convict criminals? Because when some people see others committing wrongs, they want to do their part, however small, to right it.

Warning people to avoid a scam company that has held my money and the money of thousands of others for 4+ years without showing anything for it is the very least I can do. When you get publicity that is even 1% positive, it is my duty to caution the readers that you are a blatant gaslighting liar.

It is illustrative of the mindset of the WayTools_Support Mark Knighton character that he cannot conceive of any reason why one person would look out for another person. His mind can only conjure up paranoia and conspiracy. It must be an attack on him. Why why why would people do such a thing when he has only lied to people for 4+ years and taken their money? Oh whoa is Mark why why why would people treat him so?

There is a thing called ethics. You have no familiarity with it. You probably never will. The narcissistic sociopathic mind is not enamored with ethics and morality.

Phil Schiller did not deceive customers or reporters when he gave an estimate of 2018 shipping for AirPower.  He told the truth of what he knew at that time, based on what his team believed was achievable. But new challenges arose, beyond what Apple could foresee, and after 2 years of trying, they canceled it.

In contrast, after one year of extra work, WayTools did not cancel.  Instead, we began shipping TextBlade, in limited quantities to paying customers.  We worked through whatever they found or needed, and validated it across hundreds of diverse operating environments.

A perfect illustration of your gaslighting and insanity. You are not Phil Schiller. You are not Apple. You have collected millions of dollars from customers and never shipped a product in 4 years. Phil did not do that. Apple did not do that. YOU did that. I know you do not see the difference here, but thankfully, 99.999% of readers here will see that difference and appreciate the illustration of it. You are a mental case. Stop comparing yourself to people and companies and things which you are not. Just focus on trying to stop lying to people. Then maybe finish your product. And in the meantime, return all the money to all of your customers from the last 4+ years.

Everybody remember - it is all about The Money The Money The Money. You will never see the WayTools_Support character or the Kahuna Colin characters address The Money The Money The Money in their pockets. They want to keep it all.

What matters is that the product be good.  Really good.  What matters is that we remain steadfast.  What matters is that we deliver something to all who trusted us, that compellingly affirms that it was indeed worth all that it took to create.

Few people have ever knocked the product itself, or the idea of it. Only the company behind the product, the man behind the company, and the execution of delivering that product to people has been criticized. Why? Because you took the money. You have all the money. Who has the money? Mark Knighton has the money. Who paid the money? Thousands of customers paid Mark their money. What did they receive in 4+ years for all that money? Nothing. Who still has the money? Mark Knighton has the money. Who wants to keep all the money? Mark Knighton wants to keep the money.

What is so sad for you is that even if you do ever finish the keyboard, you are going to have to try to sell a product to people who do not trust you and will never trust you because your reputation has been permanently blackened by your stupid lies.

If you had any sense at all, you would refund everyone, shut your mouth, and finish developing your product, then relaunch it and deliver it. You have no good sense. You have no common sense. You are a dang fool, plain as day. You do not care how permanently ruined your reputation is, and that is typically, in my experience, the mindset of a scam artist or a criminal.
