Delve removed from YCombinator

IIUC, it looks like Delve lied to YC about stealing another company's Apache 2.0 licensed slopware. This is appatently a bigger sin than selling a product that does fuck-all. I guess they weren't tall enough for this ride.
Delve claims to offer "Compliance as a Service"

My God this is so bad. So in addition to lying about AI what they actually offered wasn't speedy compliance as a service to get you certified, it was speedy certification as a service by bypassing actual compliance. This is such a silicon valley move and I honestly suspect that a number of people using and investing in these asshats knew exactly what was going on and simply didn't care.
