the company was “working diligently and feverishly” to take down ALM’s intellectual property.
I don't think the CEO understands how extortion works on the internet. If anything, their failure to protect it's users will result in a lot of divorces and sad kids. Even people who probably signed up out of curiosity is going to have a tough time explaining it to their spouses. The only option here is to shut down AM, but that seems unlikely given their history.
CEO thinks it's an inside job boy we've heard this line over and over after a massive leak. Hacking Team used it. Sony used it. It's not even taken seriously anymore. If a former employer is being scapegoated, he's about to make serious bank by suing his employer. There's no way to prove or even attempting to question him would immediately be liable for defamation.
If it is true that "powerful and rich people" are now going to have to divorce, give up have of their wealth to their spouse, I think ALM has bigger things to worry about in the form of class action lawsuits. The only outcome that makes sense is for AM to shut down.
