Domain registration & TradeMarks in IsraelOoops - pressed submit on the previous post by mistake
;-(Anyhow - if you think the Disney Lawyers (TM) are so funny -
have a look at the real trademark abuse petition by real Disney lawyers over misuse of their trademark by a domain squatter who registered waltdisney.co.il in: Walt Disney, Re: waltdisney.co.ilalso FYI Some background:
1) .il is the Israeli ccTLD which is adminstered by the
the Israeli chapter of ISOC2): the general domain policy in
.il is in
Domain Name Registration - IL TLD
In particular for (out of court) resolution see:

Re:Is this obvious, or...My guess is you're right. I think that if someone tried to hold "ABC.tv" hostage, and had any content on that site that had anything to do with television in the United States, they'd get a call from the Disney Lawyers (TM)
Of course, what do I know? (Despite my user name, I have nothing to do with them!)

What's the big deal?
I really don't feel like going back through the UF archives and counting every single strip that's made fun of tech support callers, but I imagine such strips make up a pretty small minority. There really aren't that many of them. And, to my knowledge, every one of these strips is based at least in part on an actual real-life call. It's not like Illiad is making this stuff up.
So what's the big deal? Illiad pokes fun at real-life morons who didn't bother to read the manual or use common sense. I've never worked in tech support but I've had to help people over the phone with computer problems (friends, family, etc.) and it's a frustrating job even when the person on the other line knows what he/she is doing. All Illiad has done is given tech support workers a way to vent their frustrations, and if he's stepped on a couple toes here and there, so what?
I think instead of whining about potentially offensive content in other strips (makes me wonder if he's seen Jerkcity) Mr. Kurtz should focus his energies on making his own strip a little funnier. After browsing through the archives a bit, I didn't even crack a smile. -
