One of the lead security people at Groupon has a big GNOME sticker on his laptop in a pic on LinkedIn. This tells me that groupon is about to get pooped on.

- jacquesm 12y agoYou should definitely save that pic and a timestamp or something to that effect. Bonus points if you do it in front of a lawyer in the right jurisdiction.
- rasengan 12y agoAlready done yesterday while we were getting all this prepared. :)
- jacquesm 12y agoExcellent. Groupon already was pretty high on my shit-list, they just elevated themselves to the top 10.
- tluyben2 12y agoIt's a bit more extreme than that; read his summary; https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/93i0gkawa4q15lh/2014-11-11%20at%2015.20.png?dl=0 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/93i0gkawa4q15lh/2014-11-... Edit: cannot be the one you meant? He is part of the GNOME foundation...
- rasengan 12y agoExactly. :/
- crazypyro 12y agoMessage him pretending to be a recruiter and ask him which one he works on.
- drrotmos 12y agoYes, because if there's something that every developer does, it's answer their recruiter spam :)
- pbhjpbhj 12y agoThis just went from trademark infringement to calculated, evil, purposive attempt to co-opt someone else's trademark. Seriously, I hope Groupon get crushed under the court - countering this sort of activity is the entire purpose of TM law. Whoever is steering things at Groupon must be pretty evil to try and play this out.

- mciancia 12y ago4 times member of board of directors... WTF?!
- toyg 12y agoOr that he's going to be fired for being a liability to the company. From Groupon, I expect the worst.
