Gamurs bought a bunch of websites and have been fumbling the bag on all of them. RIP Escapist, and soon others.

He refused to sign an NDA, so he explains briefly in the Twitter thread, and we’ll probably hear more later.
In short: Sudden firing (as in, locked out of Slack and email while at work before being informed of being fired) for not “meeting goals”, where goals were not clearly defined.

Well that’s just fucking scummy.

Do we know what was the NDA about?

Looks like standard corporate damage control NDA where you are not allowed to discuss the reason or terms of your firing. Usually illegally demanded to get severance pay.
