    Microsoft Says Former Employee Spied On Them For His Startup Company


    The guys at SeattlePi have uncovered a bit of espionage going on in Redmond. According to Microsoft, a former employee took a position with the company in order to spy on them for his startup.

During the application process Mullor claimed that Ancora was out of business—which doesn't appear to be true.

    The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

    I wonder if M$ is making it look like he was conducting espionage so that they can get away with his product for free?
