So it's really down to the question "do you trust them this time?".

No it isn't. It's whether you trust the studies or not. I do. You are suggesting there's a huge conspiracy with the studies being faked. I'd need something more to believe in this conspiracy, not just your gut feeling.

There was a 30 year legal battle to expose their conspiracy. It has already been proven. They lost in a court of law that exposed all of their nefarious activities. There are literally millions of documents you can review if you're so motivated. So that's why I say it's up to you to choose if you believe they just completely changed their behavior and stopped engaging in that behavior or not.

You are claiming they're doing it again, since you're claiming that all the new studies saying it's non-toxic is faked. I don't believe it. You do. I'm asking if you have anything concrete to show for it, same way as I asked if you have anything concrete to show about the claim of the toxicity.

It took a team of attorneys 30 years to expose them for who they are. How the heck would I have proof that they're still doing it? No, I don't have proof. I just don't trust known liars. I understand your apprehension, especially in this age of conspiracy theories. But with DuPont it's not a theory, at least not historically. Sure, maybe they went completely legitimate after being exposed. I'm going to assume they didn't, since it's risk free for me.
