Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Seagate absorbed Miniscribe by way of Maxtor. I wouldn't be so sure that 'shipping bricks' isn't in their patent portfolio.
I would love to hear from Cyberbunker on why they are providing hosting to a spammer. Oh wait, I just found their AUP that's linked from their website:

Your comment makes me wonder if bsd running companies will become the next logical target if enforcing the FAT patents proves to hold any value whatsoever, even if only gaining a settlement.
I suspect microsoft believes it holds at least as many patents for technology within bsd as it does for linux, but are concentrating on one target at a time. Any wins they have in the fight against linux will only make their patent arsenal stronger when they turn their guns on bsd.

Just wow. The mainstream news articles confirming that the radioactive material was located were posted more than a half hour ago.
ISP's need to learn to grow a back bone.
Please tell me that horrible pun was intentional.

I'm sure glad they are up front.
Would you prefer comic sans perhaps?
There's also DeletionPedia, though I can't really tell what the current status of the site is.
After browsing the site some, I believe it's being considered for deletion.
The javascript hate probably isn't coming from people that have done web development.

So free publicity is a punishment now?
if you believe the salesman mantra of, "there's no such thing as bad publicity."
how do you punish a company except by a fiscal penalty?
