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 662 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by T_Bone on 08-Apr-2004 08:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 659 (kalmar): I doubt that was his intention, or if it was, it wouldn't have been succesfull with Christian anyway. This site has always been fairly consistant... the most drastic change that ever happens here is the addition or removal of a link from the panel on the right.
I tend to suspect the intention was what Christian suspected, the making of a scapegoat. (Not that that's as bad as it sounds, that's exactly how you try to set businesses up ideally, but to try and _trick_ someone into being the "Buck stops here" fallguy is shady.) |
