- TeMPOraL 12y agoIs this probable given how much risk he would be taking on himself in this situation? It could be a career-and-company-ending move.
- ForHackernews 12y ago> It could be a career-and-company-ending move. Are you kidding me? What world do you live in where corporate executives and companies are punished for lying?
- TeMPOraL 12y agoMost cases you're probably thinking about are of CEOs of big companies issuing CYA-statements that minimize legal attack surface. Here, the guy just exposed himself completely. Also Reddit is not Goldman Sachs; it's value is directly proportional to how much people like the company, and Reddit finds itself in the middle of another funding round. I do see a great potential for bad consequences here.
- ForHackernews 12y agoI doubt the unemployed guy would have the resources to mount a legal attack anyway. As for bad PR, take a look at this thread (or the reddit thread): the majority of people are reflexively siding with the CEO.
- opendais 12y agoReddit just raised $50 million. A lawsuit is the kind of thing some lawyers take essentially on commission when the target has money.
