And amazingly, "Reese Jones" is still expunged from Wikipedia.
He's listed as a trustee for Singularity University, but no page about this powerful silicon valley internet entrepreneur.

Is Reese Jones really such a non-notable nobody that Wikipedia finds him irrelevant?
Guess its useful to be a possible buddy or possible investor with Jimbo Wales at Wikipedia, and have buddies at Wikipedia to censor your name, so the little people can't have a chance to accumulate info documented and referenced on your activities. (like the NYT)
Its better to only allow the info at sites that can be totally controlled.
Its beyond laughable that a Wikipedia page about this notable internet silicon valley multimillionaire has been managed to be blocked.
At the very very very bottom of the Linked-In profile for Groups and Association you have [
www.linkedin.com]
Wikipedia.
Imagine that.
Groups and Associations. Wikipedia.
And Wikipedia has blocked, deleted, censored references links about that person, like from the New York Times. Nothing about One Taste, or newsmakingnews.com or anything other than the official story.
How many powerful people are able to keep their own name and activities out of Wikipedia for years on end? Name even one?
That's backroom power, money talks, as they say.
Its utterly amazing they've been able to get away with doing that.
If someone is involved with Wikipedia as a Group and Association, possibly as a venture capitalist with Wikipedia in some way, so then its ok for Wikipedia to block entries on that person, and not disclose it?
Is that how it works?
