The leadership of this organization is complicit. It's disingenuous to pretend they "just found out." There are enough signals that indicate that they let "Dave be Dave." They let this continue on for years. Termina

The biggest issue here is not that Dave is a creep and that he has been let go. The biggest issue is that the leaders of this 500 Startups organization let this go on for years without taking action. Who are the people who let their organiz

Very useful. Is the issue then that there is a discrepancy between property rights and access rights that needs the CA Supreme Court to resolve? The Denny's (previous owners) used to CHARGE for access to the beach, presumably supportin
