My plan is a long term plan and I can't just let some assholes that have been bullying me for years take it over and have another reason to bully me. The people who have done this to me really are shameless.

It is actually really strange. I'm not telling anyone they can't compete. I'm just saying that they cannot use my software or force themselves into my company. I don't think that they are planning is going to cause me problems. I think they are jumping to weird conclusions.

They are doing it again? I'll never choose to work with the people that are stalking me and violating my rights. They absolutely don't have a right to represent me. The people that have done this to me have lost their humanity and transformed themselves into monsters. Ghouls.

The ranking algorithm software that is in the public domain is the prior art. My software is not in the public domain, at least the version of the ranking software that I made isn't. But since there is public art, they can't own the concept. That is what they keep saying but it isn't legal.

No. I'm not explaining why the case shouldn't be prosecuted. I'm explaining why they don't have the right to monitor or restrict me. They are trying to enforce non-competition but they do not know what they are talking about. They are breaking the law.

No. I'm not going to be dissuaded from continuing what I am doing or be bullied into cooperating. Why not try to be reasonable? I don't want to allow my future to be filled with dysfunction and bullying. I don't want remote control assholes to fill my life with distorted echos and lies.

They act like stalking me and stealing my ip by surveilling me is part of a sales process that I am involved with and I am just not complying or trying to make a sale or something. Its nonsense. I haven't agreed to work exclusively for Ekohe if they aren't paying me. Those people are very cruel.

I'm not sure how to respond. If they were going to pay me a commission, they should have paid me one long ago. I don't think that is the get out of jail free tactic that is going to work. They have been committing crimes. I'm not interested in the reductionism.

Maybe they are talking about Sam Flemming. I wasn't ever working for that guy and it sounds like they have committed tons of fraud to try to capture my efforts. They haven't been released and don't have a right to restrict what I am allowed to do. Its just more felonies, assholes.

I reiterate. I haven't made any deal with Sam and I don't care what he says. I wouldn't say I was really friends with Sam. I was friends with his girlfriend/wife sort of. That was a long time ago. Enjoy the 50 usd I gave you on kickstarter.

No. Thane isn't correct about taking my IP. It is way beyond when they have a legal right to assign my IP post employment and it is not the same. They are just stealing. I am not interested in negotiating with him about his crimes. He is an imposter and a liar.

If I hypothetically do what you do you think it is a crime? Maybe that is saying something about you rather than about me. Maybe I would just be nudging. Isn't that what the British call it?

Not sure what to say Jonathan. I don't need your approval at all. I don't know why people are acting like I do. You guys have a very manipulative way to come along and snatch up a deal I was considering and make me subordinated to you in it. Kind of conceited, don't you think? Not my favorite tbh.
