No, in that case the owner is just a shareholder. But if the original legal entity no longer exists (which I believe is the case with Instapaper) then it doesn't matter that you've been acquired, you are now part of the mothership.

Unlikely. "Instapaper Holdings, Inc." is right in their footer.

So a LLC with owned by a larger company would that allow for the owner to be a shareholder ?
