"pg hinted also hinted at this by saying that Cloudant is held to a different standard than all the other companies that deal with Monsanto."
Doesn't there seem to be hypocrisy? So YC companies have their values rise and more recognition because of the name and affirmation from the YC core but if users expect them to abide by a higher set of standards, it's all... "hold on a second, we're like any other company and shouldn't be held to a different standard?"
For the record, I don't think I would've care as much about this had the company not released such an enthusiastic PR post.
