Online reactions to a comment made during a recent broadcast have sparked a wave of negative responses, with at least 48 votes and 25 comments registered as of today. The comment, referencing a business named “Pequod’s,” elicited a visceral reaction from one individual who stated it made them “throw up in my mouth.”
The incident comes amid scrutiny of cybersecurity practices, as reported by Krebs on Security in a recent article titled “All Aboard the Pequod!” The article, published today, details ongoing concerns within the security community. Even as the connection between the broadcast comment and the Krebs on Security report is not explicitly stated, the shared reference to “Pequod’s” has drawn attention online.
Separately, financial news outlet Seeking Alpha published a report today recommending the sale of Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (OTCMKTS:TCNNF). The report suggests potential financial instability within the company. This development is unrelated to the online reaction regarding “Pequod’s,” but represents a concurrent event in the business news cycle.
As of this afternoon, representatives for the broadcast outlet have not issued a statement regarding the online backlash. No further details regarding the nature of the broadcast or the context of the comment have been released.
