Hmmm. The homepage has a symbol that looks like a variation of the Nazi

But that quote raises an interesting question I have never thought about yet:
Could the Singularity happen as a paranoid arms race of augmentation devices
where everybody tries to stay on top of the development because all those who
fall back will not perform well enough to make enough money or so to get into
the lext level? And whoever falls back too much will simply be trampled down?
Hope you have some good points against that!
