Nat I completely agree.

Here's the thing. They could have stepped in at any point and stopped the bleeding.
They have chosen not to.
They aren't here saying "that account doesn't belong to someone who worked here".
They aren't here saying "we have methodology in place that can detect distinct users and compare them to known logins from other computers and they don't match up at all."

They've had chances every step of the way to put their own anti fraud measures to use clearing themselves and they haven't.

Why is that? (rhetorical)

It's getting harder to deny the mounting evidence that some if not all of the accounts central to this fiasco are tied to bigwigs within the site- whether present or former.

They should have gotten out front and started explaining why they simply didn't catch it earlier instead.
