I agree with wmf. I was pondering what he could have done? Resell Netflix or redistributed captured video from Netflix? Nope... Nope... Its about suing form employee, who is also the now cio of yahoo, defrauded netflix and took money from Netflix by taking cuts of deals aka "kickbacks" from vendors where netlfix paid to vedors $X but the guy took 15% of $x for himself through a IT firm he has/had(?) On the side. It is pertinent to note he is CIO of yahoo as there would probably be repercussions to yahoo if he gets convicted, but leaving out he is a former employee and these fraudulent actions took place while he was employed by Netflix, not yahoo, at the time

> It is pertinent to note he is CIO of yahoo as there would probably be repercussions to yahoo if he gets convicted They may even drop him before/even-if-not convicted. It's bad PR for Yahoo to say the least. (and it's unlikely that such a bold/public claim will end up being completely meritless)

"Found liable" would be more appropriate here; the distinction is somewhat significant because a criminal conviction has greater weight in future litigation, whereas a civil verdict is only particularly significant in future litigation between the same parties.
