Wow, that WP Engine cease and desist is *next level* drama. Looks like Matt Mullenweg texted them to negotiate a fee or he would blow up their spot in his talk at WordCamp. WordPress community, fasten your seatbealts.

@zachleat I guess all hosting companies should remove any mention of WordPress from their sites? I think Matt has maybe lost the plot here.
