The article was definitely informative, but quickly became vengeful at the end. Why go to such lengths just because somebody stole your content?
Edit: I realize that he was trying to make an example out of this person. It makes sense to do this to ward off potential thieves.
- ocdtrekkie 7y agoOne could argue trying to ensure the guy isn't able to continue doing this to other people is a public service. This is not someone who tried to rip him off, this is someone who has ripped thousands of people off as a business model. And it doesn't even just impact other online course developers, as the prevalence of this behavior might lead course developers not to offer money back guarantees or refunds. The unfortunate reality of online crime, is the likelihood that he ever faces real legal repercussions for his actions is pretty small.

- mieseratte 7y ago> Why go to such lengths just because somebody stole your content? Stole your content, along with hundreds of others with the intent to resell and profit. Having been "scammed" by startup jagoffs refusing to pay similar sums of money, there's something primal about it. You want their head on a pike.

- Timucin 7y agoIMO it really doesn't matter if people make an example out if it, they should go to such lengths if they have such power - assuming that won't take away their sanity or much of their time. That's how things change. Companies and countries starts to recognise these problems as the number of complaints gets higher. They become familiar with the problems so they don't get confused with the following cases.
