You meant: this was illegal and unethical work.

But... but... but... Velocity! And moats! And we're VC-funded! Doesn't that mean we can do whatever we want?

Side remark: Since YC claims all the time that they invest in people, not in ideas, YC should perhaps part from the people behind Pickle very fast, since by their investment YC rubber-stamped that the people behind Pickle are great ones (but not necessarily the product of Pickle), something that YC perhaps does not want to uphold anymore. :-)
