Does anybody know, does Peter Thiel get any of the "credit" for helping this to happen, i.e. since it's the same attorney, was it part of his same funding effort? If so, it would be somewhat hilarious--"Thiel supports claim that email was invented in 1982"--but more seriously points up more clearly that big money supporting lawsuits for revenge is not always as "civic minded" as the clear privacy issues of the Bollea case.
