Unfortunately, however idealistic that thought, that isn't the way people think in real situations. And no amount of hoping or lecturing will change it. The simple truth? If there is an information void, people will generate their own speculation to fill it. The second part of that corollary is when the keeper of the correct knowledge chooses to stay silent, the gossip that ends up on the street is almost always far more dramatic. It may be that Logitech is betting that the adverse rumors making the rounds will stay confined to a relatively small group and any negative publicity will pale in comparison when the product is released to a larger public that was never aware of the soap opera. However, that is a gamble that corporations sometimes lose. There has to be at least one potential fall guy at Logitech that isn't going to sleep well until this is all over.
