The submission contains several red flags, including hyperbolic and highly unsubstantiated claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 2500000'). Technological details are vague ('Internet'), and there is zero verifiable evidence of adoption, reaching, or utility, resulting in a negative score.
