Well if you take that to a logical conclusion then, some religions are guilty of being an accessory.

Selling information on how to cheat isn't the same as cheating. In the case of those who used his information, those individuals should be subject to sanction. for example, I can tell you how to hotwire a car. I can even demonstrate it on my own vehicle and provide teaching aids that can allow you to be able to do it yourself. However if you steal a car using the methods I teach, you're committing the crime. I realize that free speech only goes so far such as yelling "fire" in a crowded theater but he wasn't creating panic, just offering methods to overcome pseudo science that's all about intimidating the person taking the test.
In his secret testimony before the Warren Commission in 1964, J. Edgar Hoover, said that the "polygraph, often referred to as a lie detector, is not in fact such a device." He explained that its value to law enforcement agents was as a tool of intimidation: if a subject believed the central deception that the machine could detect lies, he would have an incentive not to lie when strapped in the machine.
non-solicits/non-competes should be illegal, period. If a company wants to raid, let them. This is part of the problem when you talk about tech talent that nobody likes to acknowledge. Because of soft handcuffs, you're not truly mobile depending on who your work for or who you'd like to transition to. I've had it happen twice in my career and it's bullshit. These employees didn't agree to indentured servitude and I doubt that A123 had them under contract.
It's obvious that the A123 employees left of their own accord. A123 doesn't hold any exclusive rights to those folks unless their under contract. If these folks were "at will" employees then by all means if a new deal comes along they should go. All of this begs the point that Apple shouldn't be paying a dime to A123 in this case. Employees are not slaves and it's time to get out of the mindset that they are pawns that can be traded or kept at the whim of some task master.

He should fucking resign, as should most of the old retards who occupy the halls of congress. It was their blind eye that led to the situation of torture being used in the first place.
So now wiping a hard drive is a Hillary? I'm not up to date on this, when did they send out the memo?
But that requires removing your shirt and wrestling bears!?! I'd still rather just e-transfer everything quietly.
The Market has done better than 8% per year the past 5 years, it's shabby. TARP recipients received the equivalent of Federal Disaster Funds at low interest.
Compaq was not a shitty company. Yes the merger between HP/Compaq wasn't the best thing on the planet and essentially HP took on a ton of debt in the process. Remembering it now, it was more a merger to remove competition than it was to enhance the overall business capability of HP.
Several being.. 2... Right?
Shut up! I'm trying to refactor this old Cobol-77 shit and it's being a PITA especially on this TPF/OSPF editor. I knew I should have studied FORTRAN more in school. Okay.... ENVIRONMENT DIVISION..
I hear Ruby does LISP really well especially when using systemd to orchestrate it.
I wonder just what "Rectify" means in these cases?
You'll probably get removed, or jailed or better yet shot.
