          if this thing is being sold because it’s a propaganda and data mining risk, selling it to a cohort of government insiders doesn’t make me feel better.

      Pretty sure last time around there were potential buyers. I think Walmart was one of them, and so was Oracle.

      I imagine we’ll see the same names pop up again.
