Well it turned out that the legality of what the startup was doing was extremely questionable and ethically a line I couldn't cross. They are a quite notorious outfit still running. Basically the objective was to rip as many people off as possible by buying up a scarce resource and then inflating the price. They have faced legislative and legal battles and protests outside their HQ since. They had to move to a foreign country in the end. Me, I went to lunch in Subway over the road, scoffed a meatball marinara while contemplating the situation, concluded "fuck this" and went home. Plus I arrived to a world of no source control and ADO datasets in .Net which nearly made the meatball marinara come back out again.
