General question: do class action lawsuits need to be sponsored/initiated by an actual plaintiff, or can lawyers just start a bunch of class actions hoping one will eventually stick and they'll get some fees out of them? Edit: s/defendant/plaintiff/
What is it even trying to accomplish? As far as I can tell it's essentially an ad for that law firm.
Edit: To be clear, I do not support this legal action. I do want Heroku to hear the community, but I don't want it to go this far.

oh look, a parasitic lawyer-company trying to suck some money out of a technology company. it must be a day that ends in -y.
Wow, seriously? This is way over the top and unnecessarily snide ("Heroku...supposedly assists web application developers"). Stop Heroku? Pretty sure nobody's gonna get on board with that. What is it even trying to accomplish? As far as I can tell it's essentially an ad for that law firm.
New Relic's plugin was pretty quickly updated to include the missing time after the rapgenius article came out. But that doesn't excuse Heroku from lying about what they were selling and so far they've done nothing to make amends for those lies.

While I agree this does seem to just be a law firm trying to make some money, Heroku did directly lie to developers about Cedar stack's routing being "intelligent" when it is indeed random. New Relic's plugin was pretty quickly updated to include the missing time after the rapgenius article came out. But that doesn't excuse Heroku from lying about what they were selling and so far they've done nothing to make amends…
The Cedar stack (which Heroku has been encouraging people to use for a long while now) has always claimed to do random routing.
Dear Heroku, slice off a piece of your offering that shows some love to the Ruby community again. Lets call it the Maple stack. Have this stack use the old routing infrastructure. Edit: To be clear, I do not support this legal action. I do want Heroku to hear the community, but I don't want it to go this far.
