And while I am reading tea leaves, like everyone else on this site, I unequivocally will correct your misperception that "my" definition requires intent. It does not. (And the definition comes from dictionary.com, which I usually have open all the time, anyway.) For example, if you discharge a firearm and the projectile strikes someone behind a drywall wall because you did not see her there, it does not mean that you intended to hit her, but it most assuredly does mean that you are responsible for injuring her. On the other hand, given Joe's penchant for posting online, whether facebook, or Linked In, or anywhere else, he likely does in fact know that the website needs to be updated. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Likewise, ignorance of one's fiduciary obligations is no excuse, either.
I also will add that there are sins of commission, as well as sins of omission. If I fail to update my driver's license to indicate that I now weigh 265# instead of the 185# I did when it was issued, I potentially have violated a statute or regulation by failing to update my information, the same as if I failed to notify the DMV that I had moved. The former likely will never have any negative consequence; the latter may have significant consequences if the State Police use that database to locate me, and cannot. If I "forget" to change the address on my website (or indicate that I have no physical address at the moment, or that it's maybe now back in NY instead of FL, or Canada), that omission may have significant consequences.
Or maybe none of this makes any difference at all, and we all are going to be indescribably rich because of our investment in this company, once the company finds a new domicile.
