I think it may be getting (intentionally?) suppressed from the homepage. Given this is a YCombinator website, I wouldn't rule that out.
Regardless, it's been an ongoing issue. I know a few involved companies — it takes basically 5 days to get a SOC 2 Type 2 report through Delve. And, of course, they market this way too: "SOC 2 in days". Unbelievable.
I just got blocked by another YC founder (and potential investor in Delve?) for refuting his handwavey argument that "all compliance companies do this" [0] — this is beyond just marketing, it is active and blatant/intentional fraud. I don't see how it can be defended. But in that sense it is a major crisis for anyone who invested in the company.
Trust me, you can lie and get away with it if you go through YC and dropped out of a top university. Garry Tan blocked me on X for pointing this out. It's a big club, and you ain't in it!
Fortunately, some of the old-YC spirit seems to be alive here on HN still.
This was such as interesting read, but I found this link via LinkedIn rather than hackernews.
I would have expected this to be somewhere at the top right now given how deep the article digs and evidence seems legit.

Forbes 30u30 pipeline remains undefeated.
How did none of this come up during diligence? Feels like a prime example of too good to be true.

I miss 2010s YC until like 2017 ish when crypto sort of just caused a massive decline across the board.
I guess it is great if you're a grifter/scammer or looking to just sell off to a FANG.
