Yes I see those threads all the time. I also see them asking if they should sue, in which everyone responds that they should not.
In theory I'd either work for a big company who would go to bat for me on that, and or own my own small business, it would have very little in the way of resources (as I would keep it that way) so there would really be no assets to go after? Granted that still sounds like a super shitty thing to happen to you.
The licencing requirements are not too strict, I was taking some test questions and they did not feel very hard before taking any of the training.
