> but obviously in this case Bumble seem to actively be exploiting these clauses for gain rather than protection. replying to myself because this is incorrect, as others have pointed out it seems to be in the grey area of previously open sourced work that derived from the company's IP... Which is not uncommon, i'm sure plenty of people here have open sourced small projects from their work with their employers permission... and there's the question, did this person have permission, if they did then Bumble is trying to "unopensource" a previous decision, if they didn't approve it then I guess the employee has broken their contract.
