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 839 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Polyhead on 08-Apr-2004 19:33 GMT | In reply to Comment 655 (T_Bone): actaully from what i'm hearing it wasn't genesi trying to push the contract, it was someone at thendic. I wonder if any of those contracts are anygood anymore since thendic was the company doing all the paying.
At this point here's the way the facts make things look.
The mistakes:
1. Genesi even hiring Kemp, bad idea
2. Christian signing such a god awfull contract, really bad idea.
3. Suing your employer when they are making an effort, really really bad idea
4. Lying about the lawsuit, .. ok playing the freespeech card and having it be a total lie, thats pretty goddamn low kemp
"It is better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission" is the way I operate on these matters. You all can guess where i learned it.
I'm asking bbrv and all the morphos developers to forgive me.
I'm gonna have to ask kemp to please put his head in a bucket of gasoline. |
