Ugh. What you focus on increases and suing someone I think is generally a waste of everyone&#x27;s time and a mistake. But then I read:<p><pre><code> She suggested a change to the ownership structure of the company that would reflect their contributions, according to a statement she gave to board directors. The stock options that had already vested were theirs to keep, but going forward, the split would go from 50&#x2F;50 to 65&#x2F;35. </code></pre> Who is the moron who gave the CEO advice to stab their cofounder in the back for 30% more equity? As the saying goes &quot;bears and bulls make money. pigs get slaughtered.&quot;<p>You should found a company with people you think would make the world better if they got rich. And then celebrate when you all get rich together.<p>Sad situation and I hope they come to their senses, have a beer and focus on more important things.
