Again, I'm trying not to be argumentative, but are you kidding?

I work in the industry and know the players. Nothing I've seen (that isn't already out there) could provide the kind of harm to DCLK that you imply -- although you never state precisely what harm you're talking about. Have you been reading all those articles in The Industry Standard, etc. about how companies are using the keep-the-plan-secret-as-a-form-of-hype plan in place of traditional PR?

The only thing that makes any sense based on your posts (other than you're a short) is that you've seen someone's confidential business plan and you're leaking it.

Try to keep in mind how incredibly hard it is to unseat a market leader (even in the Internet space). As the leader in their segment, they attract the smartest people and the most favorable deals. This position doesn't go away over night.

Is there a *specific* reason why you don't name:
1) The company name
2) Why they will hurt DoubleClick
?

Again, to the extent that you're being simply naive, please excuse the harshness of the response. But your insistance on not naming the company strikes me as extremely wierd.
