According to the article you linked it isn't. They platformed him but it isn't owned by him and he doesn't work for them.

FUTO has demonstrated other sketchy behavior. The relevant comments were collapsed when I opened the page FWIW.
Also, platforming Yarvin alone is enough for me to avoid FUTO. Everyone is free to draw their line in the sand where they will.
I edited my previous comment from "FUTO is Curtis Yarvin" to "FUTO is associated with Curtis Yarvin" to be more precise.
I completely agree. I just thought it important to be accurate with these criticisms.
Good on ya for the edit :)
Agreed, accuracy and sources are important!
I'm confused. Are futo the bad guys now? All I know about them is that Louis Rossman used to be involved with them. I like Rossman's stuff / the futo speech to text is great (gladly donated to it).
Dunno if Rossman's split with them was just so he could focus on FULU or something more.
