Another Lawyer Feeding Frenzy

Matt, please delete this topic if it's too far off the ELI themes, but I thought to add a link to an article I just read about the lawyers circling for a feeding frenzy over the recent Facebook IPO. There's an interesting story at...

Good article, I know it’s a somewhat different situation but I think Getty will face similar problems with lawyers circling if they go public, not as a result of glitches but from their trolling activities.  A good line from the article Getty should think about before going public was:

“If you're Facebook, you're making a list of all the regulators you have to deal with, and identifying some you want to deal with more quickly than others," Garber said.

I think Getty might have a lot to deal with if they went public and opened up their books for all to see.
