Didn't already have their day in court and settled? Are they entitled to revisit the whole saga every time Facebook's valuation is raised?

- scarmig 15y agoHaven't followed it closely, but stock shenanigans on Facebook's part is apparently what they're upset at. My very vague impression is that it's like if someone gave you an envelope full of hundred dollar bills in exchange for something, but in actuality they were all twenties. Dunno if there's anything genuinely to that, but that's the argument.

- FaceKicker 15y agoMy knowledge of the situation is entirely based on watching "The Social Network", but that sounds more like Eduardo Saverin's lawsuit, whereas the Winklevosses' was about Zuckerberg stealing their idea. Did I misinterpret/misremember the movie or was the movie wrong about the lawsuits or what?
