Has YC had the time to see the results of their naughtiness though? Scribd seems like a poor product based on my run-in with it this morning and the comments of a few people saying how bad it was. But personally I haven't really used it. And Dropbox had a lot of hype at first until it was realized that their security wasn't so secure after all. I see these types of things as being naughty because its somewhat underhanded, cutting corners, etc. Could the naughtiness cost them in the end? Perhaps. I guess we will see.
