Ok, my 2 cents, I dont see why NVIDIA doesnt just settle with this guy for pennies on the dollar simply for good will. When I do business with people if they have any sort of basis (such as legitimately doing work for me) it's important to me to see them whole. I wouldn't be surprised if this person would have settled for even a 1% valuation ($10M is life altering money to >99% of americans) and it's not like they would have to pay it out, they'd just print the shares. (maybe vest it over 4 years too, har har).
Just my 2c and how I think about business. I get it's not the American Way™ but maybe it should be.
What you’re saying makes a ton of sense on an individual case basis, but now multiply that by every employee or customer who has ever interacted with Nvidia with a bone to pick.
No company can just settle with every person who decides to litigate them, especially ones that are seen as large targets who can afford to pay.
The statute of limitations is there to keep the process fair, because that defendant can spend decades discarding or losing old documents and exonerating pieces of evidence, witnesses can die or forget events in the past, etc.
Slippery slope fallacy.
Because the next day hundreds more would show up with similar claims.
Really? There's hundreds of people who would show up with a typo on their legitimate contract and would some how know even with an NDA?
How do you know it is legitimate? Because someone on the internet said so?
