QuoteA man is being sued for keeping Twitter followers that he attracted while working for a US mobile news website.
Noah Kravitz tweeted for Phonedog as @Phonedog_Noah, but later changed his username when he left the company - taking 17,000 followers with him.
Sounds expensive to me.
Interesting...sounds like legal agreements will have to be revised for new employees:
"Any followers attained under the employee's name on social networks are property of the company"...etc etc.
Might be some more court battles.
