I'd call it a poison pill. Consider what it most likely is trying to prevent you from doing, and then go do that instead of what condition the poison pill is attached to.
- tptacek 10y agoI don't object to you calling it that, but it is literally the thing people are talking about when they refer to "exploding offers" from venture capitalists, which is the irony here.
