This is a well-written response to what I think is a pathetic controversy.

Frankly, it seems to be mostly driven by investors and company owners feeling threatened by SeedSigner. Of course, I haven't seen every interaction between those involved, so my impression could be wrong. I don't really see the threat, as SeedSigner is a somewhat niche device that I don't recommend for MOST people I talk to about Bitcoin. I use them and have built them for others for educational purposes.

I've had nothing but wonderful interactions with the SeedSigner project leader, but I'm sure he has communicated negatively with someone. So have I.

Of course SeedSigner could reduce its current attack surface, but that's true of all devices and software I know of. Everything has some tradeoff.

Ultimately, I think security models and related products will improve to the point that average people simply don't have to worry about stuff like this.

In the meantime, I'd prefer that we all work together to mitigate risks and educate newcomers without exposing them to stuff like this. I feel better about this approach than when I participate in drama or see it happening.
