Jordigh, that's not the first time you've made that evidence-free claim. Let me make my own: your hostility has less to do with Wolfram and more to do with you.
You develop an open source alternative to Matlab. But if the Wolfram Language is really successful, it would make the work you've done fall short of its goal, which is to put all science and math computation on a free, non-proprietary basis.
Which claim? That he sued everyone in order to acquire control of Mathematica?
Like I said, it's hard to give evidence of that because he sued everyone into silence, but here's some vague allusions about it:
Wolfram quit Illinois, took the program private, and entered into
complicated lawsuits with both his former employee and his
co-authors (all since settled).
I suppose your next move is to discredit this source, but this isn't the first time I hear about it. I remember other vague allusions to this incident, and it fits with Wolfram's overall litigious nature, which is well-documented. I'll try emailing the parties that were probably involved (I think it included at least partially the SMP crowd).
In the meantime, you can keep defending Wolfram, but I don't think you really need to. He's got no shortage of shills.
