There are 2 competing offers to buy the company, as I know of. One from OVH founder Octave Klaba, the other from JB Kempf, of VLC fame. So no, I don't think it should go out of business - in the short term.

From JB Kempf of VLC, and supported by Xavier Niel who is a huge VC in France and founder of Free, which totally disrupted the ISP mafia in France.

This video is a great interview of JB + story of Shadow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0c1CJT8X8A&t=20s

Thanks for the additional info, I had forgotten Niel was the backer.

Thanks for clarifying. Seems like a lot of companies in this space (at least the ones geared towards gaming) have had to pivot.

Looks like JB Kempf is the Shadow CTO

It's one great piece of tech, so I'm not surprised he'd be interested in trying to turn it around
