Upvoted this submission because it contains three very important lessons for technologists: 1. Never, ever accept a cofounder arrangement where you deal with the code and someone else deals with all the money. 2. If someone starts trying to exploit you, get a lawyer. The last thing you want is for the law to be on your enemy's side. 3. If this is your hard lesson in the first two rules, and the bad guys offer you a substantial chunk of cash to walk away (and $300,000 is a substantial chunk of cash), take it. It's by far the least bad outcome for you.
