HardOCP Sues Infinium Over Legal Threats

Posted by simoniker on from the fun-fun-fun dept.

Cebu writes "According to GameSpot, in a less than surprising move, Kyle Bennett of tech website HardOCP has decided to file a lawsuit against Infinium Labs, makers of the forthcoming Phantom PC-based 'console'. On February 27, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division under the Declaratory Judgment Act to force the issue of Infinium Labs' repeated legal threats against HardOCP for an allegedly defamatory article written last year."

    Hey Slashmonkeys,

    Why is it that the lameness filter objects to my short, witty retorts, but lets this garbage right through? You might want to look at that code again. If there are 100 consecutive characters with no slashes to indicate a file name or URL, it's probably junk.

    Bush threatened the press that if they did a story about an exspose book on his cocaine habits. These kinds of threats affect everything. Geeks should be very watchful of these things.
