His argument was that he could not find appropriate legal representation because of the gag order
If true this would be, by itself, a really really big deal. But the article doesn't seem to say that. It says he couldn't find a lawyer willing to take on his case, but he talked with "a dozen." Lawyers are the best people to ask for recommendations to other lawyers.

- mreiland 12y agoAs a software developer, I become "that computer guy" to everyone in my family. Which means I know everything about everything wrt computers. Is this true in your experience? Do you think it's a good idea to have your run of the mill web developer creating device drivers for your embedded device? Why then, do you think it was enough for him to simply speak with "dozens of lawyers" rather than finding one that had both knowledge and experience dealing with the specific area of the law dealing with this issue?
