Techrights Does Not Do a Response to a Response

Tit-for-tat pingpong is typically a waste of time

Racket For Playing Table Tennis

LAST WEEK or earlier this week we published some stuff that managed to strike a nerve. A non-rebutting rebuttal was then published, containing falsehoods and blatant contradictions.

Just to be clear, we consistently reject a need to respond to people who "debunk" us without actually presenting any falsehoods in what we published.

On we go. We always correct false information; where no errors can be found, it's pointless to justify a truism. It's almost counterproductive.
