No actionable information in this rant. Why not either skip the name calling and give us a factual account of what happened naming names; or tell us what to look for to spot an asshole VC ahead of time.
I can only think of one case off the top of my head where all the nasty details were revealed and all the names were named - the mid-2000s lawsuit by the epinions founders against Benchmark and August Capital, for similar 'let's wipe out the common' hijinks.
When the lawsuit became public, there was a ton of talk about how the lawsuit would ruin their careers, and they would never raise money again. But Naval Ravikant, one of the plaintiffs, seems to have done just fine. Mike Speiser, another one of the plaintiffs, also did pretty well for himself. Don't know what happened to the rest, but I'd be willing to bet they're still quite comfortably in startup land.
The consequences of naming names aren't as dire as you think they are. For the love of pete, if someone really shouldn't be funding entrepreneurs, tell us who it is.
Or alternatively, it's a message for founders -- "I'm the kind of guy who doesn't do deals with folks like ASSHOLE VC."
As a founder you should question the relationship between the VCs and any counsel you hire.
Of course founders could and probably should have their own lawyers advise them in deals with outside investors.
Based on what you are saying, it is very different now - which is a shame. It can only be as good as the data entered, and you would hope that entrepreneurs would not be afraid to post criticism, especially since you can remove finer details and remain anonymous.
