Best Buy Uses DMCA To Quash Black Friday Prices

Posted by timothy on from the wouldn't-want-to-tell-you-prices dept.

Sethb writes "It looks like Best Buy didn't learn from Wal-Mart last year, and has now invoked the DMCA in order to prevent FatWallet from posting information about what items they will have on sale the day after Thanksgiving. Hopefully FatWallet will stand up for themselves again, and Best Buy will be laughed out of court."

    Just because you have a way to make money doesn't mean it's illegal for someone else to detract from it.

    I mean, come on, get real.

    Lots of things can hurt business.
    Your competitor selling stuff cheaper than you can hurt it.. should that be wrong too?
