[POINT 2)"Idol" Is an opaque company that has hid the names of its founders, sent out misleading remarks, and changed its promises secretly after running away from past promises that have been already funded.]
In the previous point I pointed out how they made false promises and fled with the money.
Here I will point out their cover up of it and how they changed their image entirely.
Lets go back to article 5 Article 5:
https://idol-company.com/432-1/This is on February 15. The initial debut of the first "season" was set to happen on February.
Note that by this point, there have not been a single design showcase and we are told that the girls will debut as a 4 girl group with a well composed world
This is a pretty grim change. The website has been completely overhauled.
What we see here is an intentional attempt to paint themselves as a non Israeli company who has decided to approach making content in Israel and received support.
This has to be one of the shadiest moves that they could have done. If you are still on the fence about how you felt about them, please look at this.
Article 8:
https://web.archive.org/web/20211219202811/https://idol-company.com/This is how the website initially looked like. There are lots of cheesy images taken from random places with the logo photo shopped on to make this look like an actual startup and not a man sitting along in his dirty underwear. This is a bit strange but reasonable.
Some notable things in this is that
>>>They actually have the contacts of the people who are in charge.One thing to note as you move from the February 6th version of the website to the March 12th version of it is that
>The website is now in English>The website now does not mention any of the founders nor their contacts>The website now has a contact page, where the primary things you can do on it is to ask for money in exchange for giving them clout (requires a high amount of followers and viewers) or give them money for the project.[6/9]
