I think while you're definitely free to leave, just keep in mind that the movie is very exaggerated and the truth is really not anywhere as bad as it seems. I think Lawrence Lessig had some great commentary on this the other day: http://www.tnr.com/article/books-and-arts/78081/sorkin-zuckerberg-the-social-network http://www.tnr.com/article/books-and-arts/78081/sorkin-zucke... Aaron Sorkin is a great writer, but he's writing for dramatic effect, not truth. Don't let the film factor in to your escape.

I just skimmed the article and saw Lessig say he thought the three UConnect people didn't deserve anything and that they were being ridiculous along with our system that is awarding them money. The UConnect guys were led on for two months. Then they see Zuckerberg release thefacebook.com with the main feature they had - exclusivity because of college. I don't see how that doesn't warrant something in the range of 1% of Facebook. Don't get me wrong though, I don't think any of the UConnect guys would've done anything with UConnect on their own, but in these circumstances they do seem to deserve the settlement.
