What is so good about the USA system that makes the various European
systems something you wish to avoid?
My entire experience with what the European system consists of comes
from this thread, that's all I'm basing my statement on :) I did
predicate my statement with a pretty large if (which I believe isn't
true, but that's what people are telling me).
My experience with the American system is that even if you do wrong
(steal code), if you have enough cash on you, you can usually settle the
case and clear your reputation. For example when Andrei's employer was
accused of stealing the facebook code and idea, he paid a big $$$ sum of
money and they all promised to shut up. That's how things work in jolly
good America. That's just my interpretation, don't know if it's true.
How horrible!
Facebook, come steal my code please, I need some $$$ ;)
