More Acacia bullshit
 

After a 2nd phone conversation with those people, I was told the following:

Me:
Ok, now I have taken out the 23 links from my sites which led to videos. Can you send me a letter stating that I am not infringing your so called patent?

Acacia:
No, that is not possible, you are linking to galleries which contain pictures and banners, when those banners are clicked, they take you to sites which offer membership for picture and video content.

Me:
You must be kidding me!!! I can't link to site or galleries with movies on it, and now you claim I can't link to picture galleries which promote a sponsor which offers videos and pics?????

Acacia:
That is correct.

Me:
Well, then I will put the movies links on my site and you'll see me in court.

END

Those Acacia people are incredible!!!!!

A couple years back Ticket Master took someone to court for linking to their site, it didn't hold up. Now someone is trying to take you to court for linking to a site that isn't even theirs. Ahaha!

Right.

Ride this bull shit to court.

OMFG that was hilarious....these fucking dipshits are truly gonna fuck up whatever chance they ever "thought" the had!


:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

did you ever beleive that people or lawyers were this fuckign stupid.....holy crap hahahahahahaha

This whole nonsense has to come to end man , i cant believe they told you that

:1orglaugh


im still laughing!

So basically you're linking to a hosted gallery. The hosted gallery has no movies on it. The hosted gallery is linking to a site that does have movies on it. You're being held responsible for what your links are linking to.

Yeh, ok.

just dont settle, its quite clear now what we are really up against:helpme

I think they are still confused on how the adult industry works or they are totally overwhelmed with all the shit they have stirred.

In their mind if you link, as an affiliate, to a site which offers video, you are facilitating a patent infringement. It sounds totally crazy and un enforceable in a court of law.

In their words if you are an affiliate of a sponsor's program, if you link to that program's hosted picture galleries, you are liable to pay the licence fee if the sponsor offers video.

so bacially.. because my cable modem is hosted on the same server as some body that promotes an affiliate program with pictures that has movies in their members area i am infragmenting on their patent and i must pay 2% or what i pay my cable bill.. that's basically what it's like

Now that you brought it up.... I want that 2% to not be held liable for reading your post on this site from your cable network that has videos somewhere. This is your *Final Notice*.

Watch out google, Acacia is on your ass for linking to 13,000,000,000 sites -- with 50% of them going to sites that have links to links to sites with movies. Be scared!

I can't stop laughing. Helppppppppp.

One of my "pit bull" lawyers nailed Exxon for $500 Mil. I can't wait to turn him loose on these clowns.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Do it soon!!!

...so I can keep my tiny ass sites running :(

People like KRL beg to be taken to court for infringment from fools like Acacia. :1orglaugh

Drag em through the mud KRL, then do a second run for the hell of it.

sounds like they want the internet to implode!

I'm sure Acacia links to child pornography at some level -- unless they have no outgoing links to any sites. Someone should point them out to that or file a complaint with the police suspecting them of linking to child pornography. Of course I'm only joking, but it'd be funny. :)

Cheers,

That was hilarious to read! I'd love to see the judge who's going to review the suit based on those merits. They'll laugh in Acacia's face!

I think I will shut off for ever my computer..... Too dangerous out there! :1orglaugh

I don't think that's the exact case.. what they may be meaning to say is that if you are linking to a site that has audio/video and that site has not licensed their patent.. .AND you are deriving revenue from sending them traffic (ie. being an affiliate), then you are a 'contributory infringer'.


Fight the Patent!

So basically they want paid 100 times for the same exact video that one person has on their site.. that lots link to?

insane!
