In my personal opinion, whether or not Luckey violated the NDA is a little academic. Clearly, the $3 billion acquisition occurred on the reputation of John Carmack, who was poached.

I don't think you should charge $500 million for a poaching. That's the crux of my anticompetitiveness argument.

Nonetheless, you definitely shouldn't charge $500 million for merely violating an NDA, even if that's what the jury found.
