In a statement, Murphy cited the recovery amount, personal payments by former executives, a commitment for $7 million to go to nonprofits and the absence of a confidentiality provision in a system where “wrongdoers too often hide their misdeeds by dangling compensation in front of those they victimized and trading that compensation for confidentiality or an NDA.”

Glad they stuck to their guns. I’ve been following this case for a few years now. This all began as an attempt by eBay’s C-level executives to bully a few reporters into silence. It makes perfect sense that those reporters would refuse to accept an NDA as part of the settlement, because reporting on things like this is exactly what landed them on eBay’s radar in the first place.

Not-for-profit is still a corporation, and the distinction simply means that they need to reinvest profits back into the company.

Separating them into their own folders allows you to store those extra files alongside the media.

My only guess is that they were trying to map their config/downloads/library folders to the same location. And yeah, that probably wouldn’t work.
