Missed the thread where he was posting over, and over, and over, in here, including some stuff that looked materially interesting for a lawsuit, while everyone was either begging him to both talk to his lawyers and listen to them when they told him to STFU, or else toasting marshmallows over his self-immolation? It was not well behavior, and that's just stuff visible in his comments on this site, let alone others.

>... [I] believe he will end up being in the right on this

So you feel which way, now?

Not everyone, I see a lot of people with civilized, mature, intellectual comments. But yeah strong actions also result in strong emotions in people, so it's not surprising to see a lot of strong reactions.

My opinion is very similar: both parties are in the right, but one is calling up a mob to pile up on this guy and call him mentally ill.

Automattic has the right to cut off use of its trademarks and infrastructure for any reason, and the hedge fund has the right to whine about it because they got used to the generosity.
