It’s a terrible move, and everyone should ignore the email. (Obviously, not legal advice, just my personal opinion.)

I don’t recommend anyone do business with them, whether as a customer or anything else; I was CEO of Fog Creek when we decided to sell FogBugz, and if I knew the difference between what we were told ahead of the deal and what happened after, I never would have approved it. I didn’t see that they’d done this latest shitty thing until now but I really lament that they’ve sunk to an even lower new level.




This is nonsense. You knew exactly what would happen.


to phrase it a little nicer; they may not have technically known but that would be due to naivety / willfull blindness that there is at least of possibility of something like this happening, but the payout was worth more than the downside risks to the decision makers who stood to benefit
