If the end user was unaware of and took no part in the release or implementation of the SCO code is there a legal basis for SCO to come after the end user?
That is as ridiculous as Ford motor company selling me a car with a Motorola chip in it that stole code from Philips. Instead of Philips taking action against Ford they just skip that step and ask each car owner to pay 1,500 to give us an opportunity "to make it right" and avoid legal hassles.
Screw 'em, let them go after IBM, I didn't do anything and you cannot hold be accountable for something you haven't even proven yourself!
Represent yourself, go through with the lawsuit and then slap them with a counter law suit for your time, money and efforts. This case has got to be dismissed based on what you have told us about it.
Perhaps you and all the other victims could pool your resources and counter as a collective group to reclaim damages.
Ok I don't have the cash to upgrade from my replay tv 2020 to the new 4000 series but I can skip commercials and I do it all the time. The question is why collect data on something you already know the results to.
** NEWS FLASH **
The results are in 99% of replay tv users press the skip button to not watch commercials. They are in violation of the you must watch the commercial policy set forth by cable providers.
Why collect this information? To be completely fair shouldn't the federal magistrate put observers in the homes of non-replay tv owners to record the went to the bathroom, went to the kitchen or dare I say changed the channel during a commercial violators. They are in violation of the same must watch the commercial act as well.
Shame on all of you who don't watch the commercials. You are getting all of us in trouble. My advice is if you have a replay tv 4000 and you are being tracked show your support and press the skip button say an extra 1000 times just so they get clear results. We don't watch commercials!
