>What happens in an acquisition where the parent company is interested in some parts of the technology you built?

One solution would be to not sell the company for the technology only. And the clause mentioned in the blog post is only valid if there is no intent of further operation. An acquisition would be considered as intent.

The purpose is to make our customers that depend on us to feel comfortable knowing that the service would still be available for them in another form whatever happens to UserApp.
