I remember, as a young attorney, being told a horror story where, during due diligence as part of an acquisition, it was discovered that the company’s primary domain name was actually owned by the founder’s ex-boyfriend.
This is… sort of less bad than that? But, like, not a whole lot.

@luis_in_brief This... reminds me entirely too much of the Freenode debacle. At least here people found out *before* the domain was unknowingly sold to an unscrupulous third party, I suppose?
(If it's anything like the Freenode situation, people *are* going to buy into this narrative and claim that "whoever owns the domain owns the community and gets to do what they want with it")
