Of course, the fact that code exists in ConnectU namespace does not necessarily make it unique or valuable.
He lifted our entire DB layer!
Someone needs to tell these guys that they already won.

It'd be pretty silly for them to keep the ConnectU code in there, even if it were true. In such an instance, I'd expect that Facebook would've changed all instances of plagiarized code, and edited it out of their revision history.
Without any actual evidence in there, what case is there?
On a serious note, I kind of wonder if there is more to this story than just mark stalling the twins. e.g., they claimed on a show that there was much more than they could talk about due to the settlement -- such as mark using the ConnectU code.
