We know the team at IU works hard to not allow baseless rumors grow legs and we didn't have any intention to give it a platform. On the contrary, we wanted to calm any worries after being asked about the rumor as we've heard the opposite in recent days.
Like the website, we also posted a screenshot of your post on twitter. We have since deleted it and apologize if it made you uncomfortable. We just wanted to give credit as you were the first person we saw post about it.
