He comes across as genuine?
He comes across to me as somebody who is so obviously not genuine that I'm left wondering whether his lack of genuineness is genuine. Have you looked at Intentional Insight's About Us page?
I wonder if we mean different things by "genuine". I find it quite easy to believe that his actual desires and his stated goals are the same, and I find him relatively transparent in his theories about how to other-optimize.
I'll gladly admit that it's not my thing, but that's different from thinking that it's evil or creepy.
I generally try to be consistent between my actual desires, my stated goals, and my actions, which exhibit my revealed preferences.
