Wow. Unbelievable. This whole situation is so depressing. By supporting the CEO, is PG arguing that some employee from Facebook couldn't leave the company and make a better social media? This is such a stupid idea that I am almost believing that maybe I am misunderstanding my opponents. If an ex-employee declared his intent to build a similar product to my company, I would probably feel threatened, but in no way I would make any move to avoid that, otherwise I could be correctly labeled as a selfish loser. It's society that will ultimately lose if such an enterprise is faced with legal adversaries. The correct response is to continue building a better product. Fuck non-competitive agreements. People should be free to pursue their passion and what they enjoy doing.
