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.
