The Supreme court said that states cannot extend the statute of limitations so that priest that have molested children be charged with those crimes. But, the same court said that copyrights can be extended into infinity.
If the MPAA backed extending the statuted of limitations, would the supreme court allow child molesters off the hook?
The problem is you don't get to trademark a word for all uses.
Unless Hormel cans of spam have a ethernet connection, it won't fly. You can have trademarks in different areas, that are not a violation, ie. Ford cars and Ford Models. There is no confusion unless one is on top of the other.
The situation with the number of bugs is because people tolerate it!
The Sprint PCS Vission support person told me to powercycle my phone when I was having connection problems. This was to flush the buffers and cache. They said that this is a common problem with all software and said that even Microsoft Servers have to be rebooted every few days.
If we hold companies' feet to the fire and and be demanding, they may change when we start demanding refunds for buggy software.
WRONG! According to the RIAA and MPAA low sales is because of piracy, therefore we must have more laws and no rights.
Why buy entire CDs when we can pay only for the song we like a from a per song legal music download site? The MPAA claims that movie viewing has gone down, but they fail to take into account that you can see movies as well at home on a home theater system without the $5 popcorn or the chewing gum on the floor.
There is a difference when putting up a factory in a residential area.
But funnier is in Mass. the Turnpike Authority put up a sound fence for a section of houses that was along the Mass. Turnpike. They funny part is that these people complained that the noice hurt their property values and disturbed them -- even though they bought the houses knowing the Turnpike was there and bought the house because the house value was lowered because of what they now complain of.
It sounds like Bono is being paid off for her getting the Bono copyright extension act passed. How many of you out there are wondering when the first talk of heading up the RIAA came up as related to the timeline of the Sony Bono Copyright Act?
I have a friend who is an attorney who had been litigating a case down there. A person bought an empty lot, and one of the neighbors been fighting in court to prevent him from building the house because it interfered with his view of the beach.
If the person was really concerned about the view of the beach, he could have bought the lot.
Instead of hanging, why not eliminate the tax benefit of moving work and companies off-shore.
If you don't allow companies to deduct costs for moving work off-shore. It is a double slapp when a company moves the work offsjore, to foreign workers, then give the company a tax advantage for that.
They can ask. The only problem is if they do ask, they will have to do a fancy dance to show that they didn't use the answer. If it didn't matter, why did you ask?
SLAPP would not have applied in NY. If I remember correctly, the NY SLAPP applies only towards government access.
Each state's SLAPP laws are different. Some are only when you talk about the government process, others are much broader.
There is also rule 11, that may apply, which is for filing a frivilous lawsuit. This is not used much, but it does get invoked on occassion. There was a case in California where a plaintiff was hit with a $500k rule 11 ruling.
I'm not sure if the bankruptcy would discharge the penaly for court sanctions as these are done maliciously (sp?).
When people are wanting the account number so that they may wire their $995 to attend.
Back in February, an anti-spam lawyer was joe-jobbed. He found out that he had 40,000 bounce back messages in his mailbox. The really suprising thing were people asking for his hourly rate so that they could file lawsuits against people spamming.
There are criminal penalties for spam under Penal Code 502.
The problem is without the $500/violation, you are now depending on the government to enforce the laws against the spammers. By having the civil right of action, it provides an inveptive for individuals to take action and stop these spammers.
Look at the DOL and the EEOC when it comes to the laws that they enforce. Usually, they say that it looks like a violation, go ahead and file a lawsuit on your own, unless it is one of their hot political topic or after many have complained.

Because parts is parts.
There is vigorously defended, and there is frivolous. In this case, it would seem the latter.

Spammers have no business on my computer systems!
People who like spam can OPT-IN for it!

It would be a great trip.

This sounds like my aunt, take out a home loan so I can get a tax deduction.

And if they find out you lied, they can fire you for lying.

No, terrorists have to use Windows for their Weapons of Mass Destruction. Then, they only have to invoke a BSOD.

There is a difference between lying and puffery.
The company may be required to pay all the money that it had received.
What did everyone forget Number 5"?
Yes, but is was also about behaving yourself and having ethics. Not spamming.
A like that wording. robots.txt is a terms of use that a computer can usually understand.
