We found two of those papers which we suppose that they are published especially for Peter to make him buy products from OpenBCI:

We come to this hypothesis since we where interested in ECG, EEG, OpenBCI and scientific papers about this topic. And then we suddenly found these papers. As we suddenly found new YouTube videos from Arnaud Delorme with the Muse and EEG which look as they where made especially for Peter.
If the papers about OpenBCI where published especially for Gamma from www.petergamma.org which should encourage Peter to buy openBCI are partly financed by OpenBCI by offering those authors OpenBCI products for free in exchange for a paper, what is the scientific value of it? The scientific value of it is for the business scientists who work for OpenBCI to increase sales of OpenBCI products.
But if we look at what Robert Oostenveld and Peter Gamma as scientific advisors have written about OpenBCI,
do we not come to a completely different conclusion, and that is not to buy OpenBCI products, buy the Unicorn Black, and start soldering and coding as soon as possible:
And Robert Oostenveld and Peter Gamma do not have a conflict of interest with OpenBCI, since they do not use OpenBCI products, or are in any kind entangled with OpenBCI. So is what they write not more trust worthy than what authors write which are partly funded by OpenBCI?
And if these papers are partly funded by www.OpenBCI.com, should they not declare it? But none of the authors of the mentioned papers declare that they do not have a conflict of interest.
