Just another point to getting the trade union going... Stopping this sort of thing thru some education and having a large group to carry more weight in a trademark/copyright infringment case.
To the people that are commiting copyright and trademark infringments... Your demise is coming... sooner than you think. Precedent has been set and you can puff your chests all you like, but when YOU are handed the legal bills for being sued in a Civil Action where the evidence is NOT a 'beyond the shadow of a doubt', just a 'preponderance of the evidence' is all it takes to be found guilty. And to top the stack, you don't have to be making a profit or charging for the name or content by any means to be sued.
This can also result in your hosts etc being charged as well. Guess who THEY will be sueing after that? I think the attornies need to be talked with alot more before some 'webmasters' think they are so intelligent. Or you might be paying the rest of your lives. Let alone the fact that any hopes of online income will be toast. So flipping burgers to pay off a million dollar settlement should make for a very interesting life!
