Publish their company name. At least you’ll get the satisfaction of alerting other people of their unethical business practices. As long as it’s true and you can prove it, it isn’t slander.

there is no contract. they dont pay you. there is no link between you and them. therefore they are, in effect, using stolen code that you own the copyright to. get onto your solicitor and make sure they either a) prove they will never use a single line of that code or b) pay you so you will agree to give them either a clausless license to use it, or you give them the ownership rights. getting your solicitor onto it will cost you little.

dont let them get away with it, even if you dont get paid you can at least stop them using it.

I wanna say say it’s not typical, but I really can’t… I mean I’ve got a full time job and my boss has to skip 1/10 of the paychecks…

Man… now I’m going to bed depressed… I hate you :P
