They harassed him for years to stop working on the things that saved them then gave him 170 dollars per patent and 60k a year then sued the shit out of him when he left. He basically only got enough money from the countersuit to cover his legal expenses after they fought tooth and nail to appeal.
That company deserved to go bankrupt due to their shitty company culture and they punish the one guy that saved them from themselves.
