Ever wondered who those key Arduino employees were and why they left Massimo and his successful factory in Italy to pursue untold fame and fortune with smARtMAKER? So did I.
I will give Dimitri points for creativity, why going through the effort of actually hiring employees when you can just pretend? Do it the smARtMAKER way instead!
Rosa Maria Sonja Albino - Dimitri's sister and recent graduate of the University of Turin as a Professional Educator
Really looking forward to what she will be teaching her students... I always thought there was a Standard of Ethics for Teachers
Maria Teresa Comoglio - Dimitri's mother
I can only imagine how proud she is of her son, such honour he must bring to the family name.
Mattia Revello - Fiance of the esteemed Rosa Maria Sonja Albino
What a great way to bond, defrauding 1000's of people for close to a $1 million if you add up campaigns across the board
Renato Albino - Dimitri's brother and also a Professional Educator
There is a disturbing pattern of teachers trusted with the molding of our young involved in what is to become one of the best documented cases of deceptive marketing in Open Source history
"Diego" he is not yet flushed all the way out - but his clock is ticking.
Why does it matter who is in the picture?
Because it sets the stage for a mountain of lies and insanity that has dragged on for over a year.
Because Dimitri Albino and Harold Timmis have lied and deceived thousands of people in that year with their contrived histories.
Because the people who are being targeted now are teachers and students - Just like his brother and sister (except with ethics) People that are invested in his false promises.
Because the truth is stranger than fiction, there is no logic to anything that has happened over the past year except flat out greed; and that is contemptible.

Sixto,
you know that your blog is full of BS and things that you wrote because you hate me but are not true.
You also know that this haven't stop me, actually is making me even stronger.
And more than anything else, you know very well that I'm going to deliver every single piece to everyone before the 23rd of November. I know this is what drives you crazy, because everyone will say you were pretty much wrong, but is going to happen.
Then it will come the day I will have the time to publish so many documents, receipts of payments, receipts of 680 shipments from eBay that I keep since April 2006 and everything else. And what not yet busted by the facts, will be by the documents.
I know that you do this because there is nothing worse than have to admit we got wrong, but unfortunately sooner or later you will have to face it. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm honest. I haven't see because, I swear, I'm not reading all the BS you guys wrote, but I know you moved very bad attacks to Harold, who is a young guy with passions and you are using him just to attack me. Is not a big deal because he has relatives lawyers and they know how to get the honor back. But is also not a thing that can give you face.
Do you really think that all the hours, days moreover, you took from the family to carry on this source of hate are worthy?
To me, you did something very good. Thanks to the level you have reached I've finally gave up to take care of these things and I'm saving hours every day. But to you? Do you really believe you are getting the image of the hero with this?
Think about who asked for refund to Harold and hours or minutes later saw the pictures of thousands of CPUs or PCBs going in production. Are they thinking you really put together all that to protect them? Or they will understand you did it to cover your original mistakes?
Why don't you just shutdown that s**t and stop to act in a way that will make things nothing else than worse, when everyone will have the yellow stuff in the hands?
There is still the time to cool down the things and to don't loose the face. If your problem are $231, who cares? I will personally put the bills in the package with your reward.
What you didn't get about the refund is that:
a) I totally believe that who offers a pledge on Kickstarter shouldn't have the right to ask for refund, especially with the method of chargeback, because that will transform kickstarter in a even cheaper Walmart
b) You not understood that it was Amazon to want, more than anyone else, to have your bank refuse the chargeback. They don't want to make it easy, because they don't want to screw their business, as they make a lot of money on this, billions.
What you probably didn't get is that I've learned the lesson, and going ahead this way, every move I will make it will just bring more and more scores to me. I know, because I know what's going on here, that anything you wrote or writing couldn't be real or correct.
Next time you want to make the "scoop", moreover, try to get real information. A good investigator questions the suspected before share in public the allegations, because if evidences come out to show that you got wrong several times, at the end who is going to believe you anymore?
Again, I gave up since a while not only to follow what you share but also to think about reply or counter-attack. But any move, any update, anything I will do will just more and more make clear that you got wrong, and already many people thing you are really making up the things, at this point.
Just give up, is not easier? We just pretend nothing happened. You stop wasting time and energies on this and I will never make any reference to it or search for any revenge.
Even if hard to accept for you, unfortunately sooner or later you have to get in your mind that you got really wrong about me and about all what's around me. Is not the sooner the better?

Dimitri,
I simply point out documented facts and inconsistencies. I obviously believed in you when I trusted you enough to hand you $231 in exchange for the items you promised to deliver. I believed in your vision until your own behaviours gave cause to doubt you.
The information I have posted is firmly rooted in fact from multiple, credible sources. Good, bad, neutral - They are all still facts. I had no interest in knowing anything about you until you attacked me and started telling blatant lies.
Honestly, and I have also posted this; I would rather you had been honest about your capabilities and experience rather than all the grandiose b.s. - If you had presented as just a regular guy with little to no experience the expectations would have been very different.
Instead, you chose to fabricate a history and spin a web of lies that ultimately came back to haunt you. It's why I don't bother to lie, it just isn't worth the effort or risk. I would rather shoot straight and let someone make an informed decision whatever it is. Perhaps I am naive and most definitely I am an Idealist - I can't help but expect people to do their best.
Initially, I disregarded everything I was reading, because I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt. I gave you fair warning, I have been direct and pragmatic. I never expected to find so much garbage hiding under the bed.
You have done an exceptional job leaving a trail of mediocrity, deceit and failure in your wake. You attempted to capitalize on what you thought was a niche market where you could maintain the illusion of expertise and you were mistaken.
Please understand and be very clear, I have significantly more documentation that details a far greater issue than I have to date published; and I gave you fair warning of what was to come. You had a chance to stop this thing before it spiraled out of control. Your behaviours and actions are what created this, all I expected was for you to say what you mean and mean what you say.
Back in March all I said was I was disappointed, you offered a refund and then renigged while acting in a most irrational and unprofessional manner.
I have no hatred for you, I have a great disdain for how you have showed up... I am disappointed in you. If you had behaved in a manner befitting of the experience you claimed to have, this would have been a non-event; but you didn't.
If you had just kept your promises, this would have been a non-event, but you didn't.
I have no doubt you will deliver, you have no other option; regardless of that fact, the legacy of your actions will live on and no doubt haunt you for many years.
I sincerely do hope you follow through and all your ducks are in a row... Please make sure that you have all the required documentation, filed in a timely fashion and adhere to all laws and regulations; I hear customs officials are not very lenient on those who manipulate perceived loopholes and Chinese officials tend to frown on questionable behaviours.
I would love to see you actually deliver. I have no hatred, this is business; I do not see you as worthy of any emotional investment as you have done nothing to earn it.
For as much time you think I have spent you are mistaken, I simply have a unique ability to retain and index information rapidly; a skill that enabled me to build a long history of exceptional performance and proven results.
The libelous personal slurs and attacks you have made are fully documented and will be addressed at a later time. Back in March I said to you "a man of honour pays his debts and keeps his promises" - No doubt a lesson you are now learning as evidenced by the speedy refunds issued to Indiegogo backers.
This stopped being about delayed delivery months ago; This is all about the integrity, ethics and character you have failed to display.
All the best,
six

The market is made of offer and demand. I've made my offer. You could accept or not. You didn't. Time will say if it was the right choice.

The "market" is made of people. People who believed in you.
The same people who, for the most part, stood behind you through brief periods of thick and long periods of thin. You made an offer out of desperation because you wished to buy my silence.
I'm not for sale.

You just did what I wanted. Starting to think you are not as smart as you are trying to picture yourself. Thanks a lot for the huge gift. This will speed up the process, really a lot!
