[News] Serious allegations about H&P | ANN.lu |

Amigo follows up on serious allegations about H&P and says: "I also just asked Unisys as it says here, and am waiting for a reply. If true, H&P could probably be forced to close."
[ If H&P indeed didn't pay royalties for Unisys' GIF algorithm, they might not be forced to close per se, but if this is indeed true, and Unisys decides to sue, they might have to pay some serious fines. Also note that while this is not in unmoderated, it's highly speculative, unconfirmed and generally should be taken with the usual grain of salt - CK ]

Actually this doesn't matter in this case.
You cannot hide behind the limitation of liability to escape liability for fraudulent acts.
>Also no one claimed bPlan is the legal successor of phase5.
Legally? No. Phase 5 is "dead" legally.
That's not the point here. We were discussing "moral" standards. |
