Branding Article Response

I believe what his article is trying to tell us is that good design can come from anywhere. What the guy did was ultimately wrong, but it lasted as long as it did because of his design. It took someone to analyze the product for his scam to be discovered. I'm sure that if his sketchy product hadn't been put to scrutiny, it would have gone unnoticed for much longer. Good design, whether mad with good intent or bad, can ultimately accomplish its goal: to sell.
