@PurpCat@WandererUber@neo Are there examples of other companies doing this besides IBM because there is literally no point in going after employees doing personal projects unless the project in question is in competition with your product (e.g working on ReactOS while working for Microsoft).
@PurpCat@neo That's cool if you're just looking for a job and stuff but on the internet there's even a way to have your cake and eat it. Just step down from the project after the letter and then "someone else" picks it up under pseudonym. That way you get the notoriety if you're really hurting for a job and also you can fuck a big corporation up the ass still and they can't do anything about it.
If you're not being a troon to the system and using a fake name for something you give a shit about (remember real name policies are dying thanks to them) you're going to get raped by them.
@WandererUber@neo You have no idea how hard it is for a typical github faggot to do something for a community, and not to promote his own brand. My brother in Christ, you're a random fag online not MrBeast.
@WandererUber@poa.st the namefaggotry and attention seeking is too ingrained in the average retard. It hurts their ego to take reasonable protections which is why so many simply don't protect themselves at all.
What's a joke at this point is people making any sort of fan content or fixes for corporate games without covering their asses. I don't understand how you let them serve you a C&D. For the love of God, publish anonymously and dox their lawyers when they send you an e-mail I don't understand these people
