Very curious if this had any correlation with the clawback of pre-IPO shares. Essentially when Zynga wrecked the last social contract between founders and workers by taking back pay in the form of shares, they may have been doing it to restrict the effect of those workers knowledge of falling profits on the IPO price.
Mark Pincus has done more to hurt the environment of silicon valley than any figure in my recent memory.
