And you thought Apple was the only Teflon technology company out there. Despite a brief six-year lifespan filled with privacy complaints and user gripes over neck-snapping design changes, Facebook just signed up User No. 500,000,000. Businesses continue to pile onboard the Mark Zuckerberg express, thanks to the powerful recommendation engine that is the “Like” button. Tech and mainstream journalists keep tripping over themselves to lock up interviews with the youthful CEO.
It'll be interesting to see how the suit goes. I predict another quiet out-of-court settlement for a large sum of money. The last case was never "resolved", it simply "went away" for the right price.
I'm certain Z not only remembers that he signed the contract, but when he signed it. I'm also certain that even if he did sign it he could easily lawyer Ceglia into bankruptcy by filing one pointless motion after another to run down the clock and Ceglia's finances.
Sad, really. Contracts are only beneficial to those who have the money to a) enforce them and b) ignore them.
