Class Action Suit Against Yahoo For
Those Abused On Message Boards

Class Action Suit Against Yahoo For
Those Abused On Message Boards 08/05/2004 07:14 PM
A lawyer in California is trying to drum up a class action lawsuit against Yahoo to get them to pay anyone who's been verbally abused on Yahoo's message boards. The lawyer in question is apparently pissed off at Yahoo because they wouldn't tell him who made fun of him on their boards a while back. He eventually sued them, and they gave him whatever info they had, but much of it turned out to be false (no, really, someone gave false info? shocker). So, now, pointing to Yahoo's terms of service that forbid "unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libellous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable," posts, the lawyer is trying to put together a class action lawsuit against Yahoo for not living up to stopping those types of posts. Of course, if this succeeds, then it would make sense for most message boards to no longer forbid such posts. This looks like yet another random lawsuit simply picking on a big company because they have money.

Newertech's 21 Hour iPod Battery

Newertech's 21 Hour iPod Battery 09/21/2004 12:27 PM

If you're an iPod fanatic (you know who I'm talking about) you'd better have a sit-down. Xlr8yourmac recently reported that after they replaced their original iPod battery with one from Newertech they went from 4 hours to 21 hours of playtime. It cost them $40 and five minute's effort, (although this definitely voids the warranty). The $40 includes a tool set and installation guide, and if you tack on the coupon code 'HIGHROAD' when you check out you can get the NewerTech RoadTrip FM Transmitter device for only $9.99. Not bad, especially if you've got an older iPod (1st or 2nd gen) with a worn out battery.
