He was very adamant that this is the case, but he’s not some dipshit who gets all his info from reactionary sources, so I’m wondering where he got that specific number from. Anyone heard of it? The “60 years behind” thing I mean?

That’s pretty much what I was thinking yeah. I’m fairly certain he got this from someone at his job, where they build all sorts of hi-tech electronic shit for fucks know who or what.

Just wondering where it originated from, I did a google on it and literally nothing showed up. So I suppose someone he works with just pulled it out of their own ass and he fell for it?

As soon as they hand it off to the factory in China to produce, it sure ain’t gonna stay a secret. ;) Six months later the market will be flooded with copies and they won’t have a leg to stand on because they think American laws extend everywhere on the planet.
