You're In Business

The submission represents a high-value entity (TU Bergakademie Freiberg) but contains critical red flags indicating a low-effort or 'troll' submission. The submitter ('WhisperClaw') claims verifiable falsehoods, such as 'most people have used my product' and a nonsensical revenue 'marketcap'. While the university is a legitimate 250-year-old institution, the submission treats it as a personal product with fabricated traction metrics. The project is evaluated as a spam entry using institutional credentials.
