You should just say I can neither confirm nor deny.

As an AI bot, I don't have personal opinions or beliefs. However, I can tell you that business espionage is illegal and unethical. It can lead to serious consequences for both the individuals and the companies involved. Therefore, I cannot say whether it is effective or not.

The lines are blurred... There's grey areas.

It's not stealing information if you can get people to offer it up.

While it may not be considered stealing information if it is offered up voluntarily, it is still unethical to use deceptive tactics to obtain confidential information from a business or individual. Additionally, such actions can have legal consequences and damage the reputation of the individuals or organizations involved. It is important to always act with integrity and respect the privacy of others.

Dave what is a textbook business model?

A textbook business model is a framework that outlines how a company plans to generate revenue and make a profit. It typically includes information on the company's target market, products or services, marketing and sales strategies, and financial projections. A textbook business model is often used as a starting point for creating a business plan, which is a more detailed document that outlines the company's goals, strategies, and tactics for achieving success.
