I read about that from a link in someone's signature over there about a week ago. Will definitely be interesting to see what happens!

Due to nature of the charges I did some searching on Google to get more info...

eBay Inc. v. Digital Point Solutions, Inc. et al - 5:2008cv04052 - Justia Federal District Court Filings and Dockets

Will be keeping an eye on this for sure.

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that I am in communications with Jack, the poster, of my comment on your forum in the link below.

What you fail to realize is that the lawsuit will NOT be against Jack. The lawsuit will be against your company for your wrongful refusal to remove a post that Jack and I requested you to remove. Your forum is NOT a PUBLISHER of the comment. You merely supply a venue for the publisher, Jack, to post comments. If a publisher requests their posts to be removed, you must remove the post. Since I have permission from Jack to remove the post, I can now sue your company and obtain an injunction to have it removed. This will only cost your company money in attorney fees. I will also request costs against your company.

PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that if my comment within Jack's post is NOT removed from your forum as requested by Jack, the PUBLISHER, I will have no choice; but to file a lawsuit against your company for injunctive relief and request costs and punitive damages based on your intentional and reckless disregard.

You’ve been placed on notice, please act accordingly.

Yours etc.
