DigiGold's Bizarre Lawsuits
from the who-did-what-to-who-now? dept
I've read the article twice and I'm still not completely sure what happened, but it appears there's quite the legal battle going on between DigiGold and the company that was created just to host their servers. The whole mess sounds a bit fishy. Systemics was created just for DigiGold, and was supposed to make money by doing work only for the many companies founded by the DigiGold founder. Somewhere along the way the relationship soured, and Systemics decided to turn off the DigiGold system for non-payment of bills. Why the relationship soured is a bit unclear. The guy behind Systemics may have been worried that DigiGold was being used for illegal activities, or he might have been pissed off that a DigiGold employee (who was not allowed to be fired by her boss), tried to "use her physical attractiveness" to seduce away an employee from Systemics to create a rival firm.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
