I wrote my comment on this here:

I decided to erase this from the comment because I don't want to give Purism
ammunition to claim victim status, but I also noticed something odd: the
supposed "funds raised" are $30,000 larger than all the supposed
contributions added up. Take a look:

I seem to recall that Purism's first couple campaigns ended with massive,
unexpected contributions that just so happened to get them to their funding
goal. This kind of stuff doesn't look good at all.
