I do not know if you have ever been involved in a lawsuit, but they can be enormously time consuming and ver expensive. In short, even if you are in the right they can play absolute havoc with your life.
- rdl 15y agoI think he's already past the point of deciding where he'll be involved in a lawsuit or not -- holding out to force them to get a court order to bar the talk wouldn't make that materially worse. I agree in a lot of cases about (especially individuals, especially people who aren't very wealthy) backing down from legal challenges, even if they have a good chance to ultimately prevail, due to the cost. For a startup, getting involved in a major lawsuit can be a huge distraction too -- so even if it the startup wins the lawsuit, the company still is stunted and dies.
