This is fascinating. Thanks for doing the ama!

Question: Do you think there is a way to create an algorithm that achieves what you are doing? Is it possible to aggregate customs data with real time AIS data and set up a list of red flags (ships being in one location too long, ships not following the course they said they were going to, etc). Or is spotting the manipulation something that is difficult to quantify and requires a human mind?

Keep up the good work holding corrupt companies accountable for their manipulation. Market manipulation and price gouging hurts everybody except the ones doing the manipulating and bringing it out in the open is awesome. You rock.

Why do you think the Koch brothers are not offering more support to Rand Paul? Paul seems to be aligned with the Koch brothers' business interests (Paul voted against the EPA governing emissions, wants to cut corporate taxes in half, generally speaking is a libertarian, etc) and is not gung-ho about making laws based on religion. The Koch brothers are true libertarians, and despise the current Republican's appeal to government sponsored Christianity, so why are the Kochs not siding with the one candidate who truly wants to keep the government out of people's business and private lives?
