FS always saw Window-Eyes as a threat and I have a feeling that that lawsuit they filed against GWMicro was part of their stradigy to destroy Window-Eyes. That lawsuit happened when FS was under Lee Hamilton. Then, Lee Hamilton left in 2013, and John Blake took over and then, in November of 2015, VFO formed with Optolec and Freedom Scientific. And then, on June 14th, 2016, VFO bought AI Squared, and then, in August of that year, John Blake moved back to upstate New York, with Tom Teerman as the new president and CEO, who is sighted but has family connections to blindness due to glaucoma. He did say in FSCast that he would probably get glaucoma eventually. So, Richard Chandler, Lee Hamilton, John Blake, were the sighted presidents and CEO of Freedom Scientific, while Tom is sighted but might eventually get Glaucoma.
