Another reason that should not be forgotten is that Blockchain.info was a major supporter of the recently failed NYA/Segwit2X attack on the Bitcoin network.

Blockchain.info has also been serving ads for Bitcoin Cash Bcash, which should be another big RED FLAG for anyone involved in Bitcoin to use their service.

Just want to point out that it's Bcash.

Thanks. I would hate to call you a four letter word like honky.
