The article was fascinating, but the part I didn't see was... what was the motive? Assuming the article paints an accurate picture of what was going on... why was it going on? Is it solely because he runs a company in the same competitive space?
Yes, he owns a competitor with his wife, formation.dev, so there is a clear incentive.
Why didn't the author sue? Feels like this is a case where if what he says is true then that's what litigation is for, no?
The author is not a party to the case but an investigative blogger.
Lawsuits can be very expensive. Even if you win.
I’ve given up on recovering tens of thousands of dollars in the past because it would likely ruin me to pursue it.

Yes.
