Quite. I run a company with roughly £1.25M turnover per annum, so seem to fit the $1M guy example.
There is no way on earth that I would look at my "value" and compare it with a £50K "value" to decide on my legal "battle-worthiness." It is quite likely that we both have similar (to the same power of 10) insurance for whatever it is we are duking it out over. Anyway this is all a bit circumspect.
Against a company with billions to play with? I'll just keep my head down and crack on and hope not to be noticed 8)
It seems like the theme here is asymmetry in legal firepower & resources between entities.
I do personally feel like that the asymmetry is smaller between elastic and AWS than the say an indie dev and a company with $1M revenue for various reasons.
This doesn't mean that there still isn't a meaningful asymmetry between elastic and AWS.
