A clarification that really only makes this worse: Crunchyroll did not acquire Funimation. Funimation acquired Crunchyroll, and decided to use the Crunchyroll name instead. They have had every opportunity since the merger to support people's purchases, but have chosen not to.
Tired of honoring your contracts? Simply purchase a different company and hide behind their name.
Or in the case of Comcast or Facebook, just rebrand without having to buy another company.
Or if you're Google, create another company under a different name, split yourself up, then buy everything under that new umbrella (Alphabet). That'll keep the antitrust enforcers at bay...
Also change your Don't Be Evil motto, so your investors know that you decided money is more important than ethics.
