The Ethereum Foundation required employees to swear to "commit seppuku" if the software was no longer free. This is according to the lawsuit filed by a former employee of the fund.
The oath was added to the foundation plan for the next 1,000 years. They gave me a weekend to decide: sign or resign. About 80 of the 250 employees asked to remove the clause.
But the management left the oath as "part of the decoration". It was simply redrawn: the text was made into a picture with cats and an anime girl.
And the organizers of the protest were fired.
