Every time a startup faces backlash from community or users, the founders just go to YourStory to white wash their image. Saw OLA's founder Bhavish oozing gyan and patriotism, Zomato's founder Deep come and answer cute simple questions and now Mamaearth before IPO.

Not really an investigation per se but kudos to publications like inc 42 finally calling out founders on their BS. Ex...
