I honestly don't know, I'm learning more just reading other comments and their accompanying links. To wit, I'm slowly having my understanding of this whole thing shaped and evolved as I read more from others on this-but the impression I picked up from a piece on TheAtlantic was that Thiel was using his buying power essentially to win this case by attrition-which is the aspect of this (if provably true) that I (personally) have icky with.
- emodendroket 10y agoWell, yes, that's right, but I think it also spans multiple cases, not just the Hogan case.
- iamdave 10y agoAh, see I'm still catching up to most people on the merits of the story; I was not previously aware that Thiel has funded other suits.
- EdHominem 10y agoThiel's not bankrupting them, their own actions are.
