Title “Salesforce buys Moonhub, a startup building AI tools for hiring”

> Updated 1:13 p.m. Pacific: A Salesforce spokesperson told TechCrunch that Moonhub has not, in fact, been acquired (by the company’s definition of the term). Rather, Moonhub is shutting down, and only some of the company’s team — not the whole team, as MoonHub implied in its post about the news — will be joining Salesforce. The original story follows.

Hardly an overt lie. Granted, the Moonhub statement did not state the whole team.

It did not mention the terms, however having some of the team move across and being compensated for dissolving your company is not an uncommon "acquisition" arrangement.
