Norman J. Brodeur?
Besides the many lawsuits against Mimvi, which became AdaptiveMedias, AdaptiveMedia, all the rest of the ploys and cons come from him. Whether it's with Supafli, VidShadow, OneScreen, or AdaptiveMedia.
You have figured out that these are all pretty much the same company, the same technology, with just with a different name, but same primary owner named Norman J. Brodeur. He keeps getting acquired and keeps ending up owner. And odd, some would say illegal, behavior follows each of these corporations, aka Norman Brodeur, as they change from one name to the next. He's now the only constant variable.
Most the lawsuits discussed, save the Mimvi ones, were from actions spawning from his lead. And, to draw back to two points...
1. I've been contacted recently by new clients or businesses that have worked with AdaptiveMedia that have what we'd call issues with the company to put it broadly. I can't say much as I was alerted privately, but from what these people say it is bad news for investors. I'm keeping watch on what some are going to do next, but can't say anything until whatever is done is done.
2. The good news for investors is that one lawyer who attempted to sue Norman Brodeur described hims as a master of avoiding collections. So that could be a good thing from an investor standpoint. If the business you support is ripping people off and stealing money, you'd want them to get away with it.
fingers crossed.
