Think Secret Gets Lawyer

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the polarize-the-hull-plating dept.

im333mfg writes "Looks like Nick dePlume and Think Secret have gotten some much needed help for their upcoming lawsuit battle with Apple. "Terry Gross of Gross & Belsky LLP, a lawyer at the forefront of Internet law since the net's early days, will defend Mac news Web site Think Secret from a lawsuit brought by Apple Computer Inc. 'Apple's attempt to silence a small publication's news reporting presents a troubling affront to the protections of the First Amendment,' said Nick dePlume, the site's publisher and editor in chief. 'I'm grateful that Mr. Gross has stepped forward to help defend these crucial freedoms.'""

    Why IS that fucker still wandering around free? The only reason I can think of is because he released secrets of people critical of the administration. I suspect he'd be doing time in Guantanamo if he'd released administration secrets instead...
