> You cannot go around accusing someone trying to start their career (this intern) of IP theft
I'm not saying that I agree with threatening legal action here, but this isn't really a fair classification. You are implying the the CEO put an ex-intern on blast in the community. There is a huge difference between making a statement in a private email (which the other party then releases), and making a public accusation (which is what you're implying).
I understand what you're saying, and I agree to an extend. But this is a thread about the apology after these accusations were made public. Instead of the apology Ajmad gave, clearly stating that nothing was stolen would be much more beneficial.
