An anonymous reader writes: "In a case with implications for the freedom to blog, a San Jose judge tentatively ruled Thursday that Apple Computer can force three online publishers to surrender the names of confidential sources who disclosed information about the company's upcoming products. The San Jose news piece has the most detail on the ruling while Mac Daily News has some background on the case, and Gizmodo vociferously expresses an opinion on the lawsuit. We've covered the case in the past as well.

Suing your customers by thedogcow · 2005-03-04 02:02 · Score: 0, Offtopic

Suing might be a good idea... Look at RIAA/MPAA. Look at all the filesharing of media it has stopped.
Oh wait, What is the torrent website? Hmm, doesn't look like it has hit IRC yet.

Okay, I take that back. Suing your customers is a bad idea. STUPID. STUPID!
