I am currently being threatened by my former employer (they are "compelled [to] take action against [me]") for the way I am running ANN, and how this allegedly violates my employment contract with them ("interfere _in any manner_ with any business relationship between the Company and any of its customers or business partners"). This might entail drastic changes to the relative freedom of speech ANN has always allowed its visitors, or ANN might close down altogether. Updated 10:00 CET.

Legal threats? : Comment 216 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Bobson on 06-Apr-2004 12:38 GMT | So many ppl are trying to turn this on its head - and directing their bile at "red trolls". For example, the attacks on KMOS are unfounded - they have yet to prove themselves as good or bad. Hyperion and Eyetech have been doing a grand Job. I think in a few years time, with hindesight you will see why Amiga inc did what they did.
I dont think the Red side has been under any illusions as to Amiga inc's problems or incompetencies - but they are just that incompetency. You can forgive ppl for their misjudgement, but its harder to forgive them for their spite and malice.
MOS and Pegasos could have been a seperate community - a seperate system. It could have been great for them. But its all gone sour through greed. The bitter ppl are unable to let go, dont like being proved that their hero worship was unfounded - and are by default true blind followers of a personality - which in my oppinion is worse than being a blind follower of a machine.
This isnt about censorship, or blue vs red - or black, or yellow or marroon. Its about what is right. Its about standing up to being bullied.
Christian - regardless of what happends to Ann, I hope that you come out of this ok. |
