As a former competition regulator, I have to say this blog post is a beauty, in content. Making such a serious accusation, albeit one that is very difficult to prove, especially when the accusation is towards your friends is a gutsy/crazy move. This pretty supports PG's prediction that the power is shifting towards founders and startups when raising capital from VCs. Hopefully, this diffuses any further action on the part of the investors. It may be time for a career change...
First comment on HN after lurking for a year or so. It does irk me that people who obtain their wealth by means of sitting at the top of a monopoly can be praised by giving away the money that they did not have to work so hard for without others giving second thought to how the person arrived in that position in the first place. Sure it was hard to get to the monopoly position in the first place, but what happened after?
