While I haven't followed this situation, I assumed based on this...

> we have temporarily stopped publishing on the Adafruit blog

That they needed to explain to their audience why they stopped publishing on their blog, and I inferred they might have previously mentioned on social media that an article was in the works, as many blogs do (which might also explain the demand letter). But I don't know for sure, and apparently neither do you.

The only difference is I didn't demand any documents, post uninformed speculation or "reasonably assume" lack of compliance with my demands would be "unclean hands" and "passive aggressive" behavior. I clearly need to work harder at being a more engaged uninformed bystander. I haven't even slung any accusations or roused any rabble yet.

They could just as easily have said nothing at all (and was probably the wisest course). Fewer questions arise from a quiet pause in publishing than from this sort of announcement.

Speaking of passive-aggressive...sheesh.
