Microsoft Settles Consumer Lawsuit in
New Mexico
08/03/2004 07:33 PM
Microsoft Corp. said on Tuesday it will pay New Mexico consumers as much as $31.5 million to settle a class action claiming the world's largest software maker had overcharged for software. The settlement, which received preliminary approval by New Mexico's First Judicial District Court in late July, will allow eligible class members to receive vouchers from Microsoft that can be used to buy any computer hardware or software from any manufacturer.

The settlement is the latest since Redmond, Washington- based Microsoft settled class-actions with Massachusetts and Arizona in June. Microsoft has been working to put antitrust claims behind it, having settled such suits in more than a dozen states and the District of Columbia over the past two years, for a total of more than $1.5 billion. As with the Massachusetts settlement and other such deals it has struck across the United States, Microsoft said it will provide half the value of any unclaimed vouchers to certain New Mexico school districts.

Claria Settles The Wrong Lawsuit


Claria Settles The Wrong Lawsuit 08/31/2004 10:53 PM
I am obviously no fan of Claria. However, the law is completely on their side when it comes to popping up advertisements on certain sites. The problem with Claria (and, specifically, their Gator adware product) isn't that it pops up competitors ads, but that many users have no idea they installed it. The installation process for Gator is incredibly sneaky, leading many people to not even realize they have it on their machine. For those who do realize they have it on their machine, Claria is not particularly upfront about what they're doing (watching where you surf and popping up ads) or how to get rid of it. I'll admit that I don't know why people would want to have that app on their desktop, but the problem isn't the app itself, but how its installed and what they tell people the app is doing. So, when some websites complained that Claria was popping up competitive ads when surfers visited their sites, Claria was in the right. If the user wanted to have those ads shown, they should be allowed to. There was no trademark infringement - because no one is trying to confuse people into thinking that they were on a different site. They were just showing alternatives. So, it's a bit upsetting to find out that Claria has settled the lawsuits rather than see them go to court (where it's likely they would win -- but you never know for sure). While many people (including myself) dislike Claria's business practices, that's no reason to celebrate this settlement -- as it only means we'll be seeing plenty more of these lawsuits, sometimes directed against more upstanding companies. An end user should have the right to do whatever they want to their surfing experience -- even if it means popping up ads of competitors on sites they visit. This settlement is a setback for people being able to do what they want on their own computers.

Nextel settles class action lawsuit 12/02/2003 01:29 PM
Giving perhaps a small glimmer of hope to all those frustrated by the monthly number portability fees being imposed by the cellphone companies, Nextel has just settled a class action lawsuit brought against it by its customers. The complaint was that Nextel's collecting of fees under the name of "Federal Programs Cost Recovery" was misleading because it implied that the fees had been mandated by the Federal government. The fees were perfectly legal for them to collect (and they're actually still collecting them), but Nextel is giving their subscribers some free minutes for their trouble. Read [Thanks, Ingrid]...
