I would be very curious to learn what sort of non-disparagement clauses existed in the Whatsapp/Facebook purchase contract. And how exactly they were worded.

I don't think anyone at Facebook has the bandwidth to deal with a mean tweet from an old employee right now. If rumors are to be believed mass resignations are coming.

Probably not, but it can mean a great deal if it gets media traction, and Acton would go in the category of "founder made into a billionaire" rather than "employee". It's not like he was some random engineer in a pool of a hundred engineers.

Where did you hear this, and what's the reason? Just various rats taking their millions or billions and getting out while the getting a good?
