This isn't the first time, even for a yc company. Remember AdGrok? I think the original post is down, but the short version is the founders met while working for AdChemy. AdChemy's ceo Murthy Nukala -- who sounds like a real piece of work; he apparently got $2.4m [1] in the eventual walmart acquisition while the employees got fuckall -- sued AdGrok and basically killed the company. They had to raise while being sued and the founders basically got tired of the stress [2].
