Happy Friday

Can someone explain to me how the fuck our biggest competitor, a massive data company, is a customer of ours utilizing a piece of our data and no one knew? No one knew that they were using our data to compete against our own data?

See y'all at the bar. Wtf.

not sure of the details yet (meeting with chief legal on monday) but we’re a privately owned company. i’m truly just flabbergasted and confused on why i was put on this for “growth opportunities”

upon further review: this company is using a part of our data and has been **allegedly** using this data to compete with our product. this is a multi billion dollar data company so i have no clue why they’re even using us (they probably don’t have the government relations that we do). anyways, the current hypothesis is that they potentially signed on to our company in the very beginning of our time (>20 yrs ago) and may be back several legacy platforms. the issue is that the contract that they’ve been under (auto renewing) basically is a blank sheet of paper in terms of terms of use. there’s virtually no regulation to what they can and can’t use the data for. so they were “caught” because they reached out and are trying to get our proprietary data that we sell to insurance carriers to “pass along to their carriers” aka develop a product (allegedly).

no clue why this got passed to me for “growth” lmfao because i’m trying to shut this shit down. meeting with chief legal on monday to get his blessing to axe it. why the fuck are we helping a competitor in any capacity?

Well, it’s Thursday. Second, fire the rep that sold the competitor and the finance team that didn’t catch the invoice billing entity name.

yep that’s what i’m trying to figure out. how the fuck does that happen. This is a huge company and even when my company started, it’s not like this multibillion dollar data company was just some small fry.

Lol, how did no one figure that out? If I was the rep who sold that deal I'd be sweating bullets.

no one on my team was around back when this (probably) happened. it was so far back there’s no contract attached in SF, which means it’s on a whole separate server than what i even have access to at this point. essentially my company’s dark web

yeah if our chief legal doesn’t axe it monday my plan is to 1.) crush them with regulations and then 2.) bring them to an updated 2022 pricing because although i haven’t seen their contract, i guarantee they’re paying virtually nothing.

Cause you have to wait for Monday?

What was your boss's reaction when you figured this out?

no i’m just disappointed it’s not friday yet

she’s just kind of like “well see what happens” but i don’t think she’s been briefed on the severity of the issue (besides the obvious) as thoroughly as i have.

I feel that lol. Just remember the 7s rule. Will this matter in 7 seconds? 7 minutes? 7 hours? 7 days? 7 weeks? 7 months?
Everything is relative, and things that seem big will pass.

yeah no you have a good point. it’s not like i sold it so either we’ll figure it out and i’ll get more money from an expansion or it’ll get axed and i get the satisfaction of telling them.
