    He's such a joke - we're dealing with a whole mountain of GISAID bullshit right now and I'm gonna go to fucking war with them if this continues.

    What are they doing?

    Wanting certain language in press releases, wanting us to code shit for them, wanting us to cite very specific papers (that state they released the first genome), etc, etc. Whenever we push back, they threaten to remove access for outbreak.info - same bullshit they have done with pretty much everybody else, including NextStrain. Difference isthat I'm not Trevor and unlike him, I don't give a fuck - burn the house down if that's what it takes!So tired of Peter's bs - and so is everybody else.

    Yup - have him reach out. I have had beef with these guys for years because of their bs practices.

    Lies and other BS: quickest way to short term gain - it ALWAYS catches up.
