Ben Swann is the real deal; I saw him speak at the Texas Bitcoin Conference. I only wished he were more passionate about the fate of Julian Assange and what it means for free speech, which I personally asked him about (I even wore my Julian Assange T-shirt). His answer was incongruent with his message of free speech and the platform he is unveiling. He almost made it seem like the greatest truth-teller of our time does not come from the same journalistic standard as perhaps others. That response made me feel that he could not be 100% trusted.
