The team that owned ARC was even smaller than Katz's, and PKARC was based directly on ARC.

I can think of no more fitting epitath than the final clause of the original ARC copyright statement:
"If you fail to abide by the terms of this license, then your conscience will haunt you for the rest of your life."
(Apparently PKARC was blatantly ripped off of ARC and Phil refused to license ARC.)
