Lawsuit To Get Tossed
11/11/2003 05:50 AMRockstar Games, the makers of Grand Theft Auto have decided they've
had enough of Jack Thompson and his crusade to make them pay for every
child related crime where the kids, at one point or another, played
their video game. They've
asked the judge to
dismiss the lawsuit, saying that they shouldn't be held liable
based on the content in a game. Hopefully the judge will listen. The
kids who committed this crime are responsible for it. Trying to pass
the buck to the makers of a video game is a move based on greed - and
not about putting the responsibility on the truly guilty parties.

Kazaa Fights Against Damning Evidence
02/05/2005 09:15 PMKazaa creator Sharman Networks switched strategies in the ongoing file
sharing case in Australian court Tuesday. According to courtroom
reports, Sharman lawyers attempted and were denied a motion to
suppress documents, which contained evidence that could damage to the
P2P network's case.

SCO Suit Against DaimlerChrysler Tossed
SCO Suit Against DaimlerChrysler Tossed
07/21/2004 04:25 PMContinuing the ongoing farce that is SCO's legal strategy and (they
bizarrely seem to believe) business model,
John points us to
the latest over at Groklaw noting that it sounds like
pret
ty much the entire case against DaimlerChrysler has been
dismissed. You may recall that SCO made a
big
stink about how they were going to start suing companies, despite
the lack of any real evidence that they have any IP claims on Linux,
with AutoZone and DaimlerChrysler being the initial targets. It
appears that strategy has gone down the drain now as well. If this
doesn't convince companies to ignore baseless threats from SCO, I
don't know what will.

as "eye for eye, tooth for tooth" during deliberations.
Teen Scammer Finally Tossed In Jail
Teen Scammer Finally Tossed In Jail
06/14/2004 09:21 PMBack in 2002, the SEC charged a teenager who had
scammed
people out of approximately a million dollars by promising them
that he would return 2,500% on their investment at an online casino.
Honestly, the most impressive part is that people believed him enough
to give him that much money. The kid is obviously persuasive. So
persuasive, in fact, that the SEC let him off with a slap on the wrist
after he returned the money and promised to stay on the right side of
the law. That didn't last long. Two years later he was
caught
trying to con a bank out of half a million dollars in a similar
scam. He, once again, promised huge returns by betting the money
wisely in an online casino. Now, he's dropped down to a more modest
scam, but will finally be spending some time in jail for
sellin
g stuff on eBay and never sending out the products he sold. For
this, he's getting nearly three years in jail.

Bye, Bye Kazaa!
Bye, Bye Kazaa!
07/13/2004 11:48 PMWith innovations like eDonkey, SoulSeek, and now with BitTorrent, does
Kazaa really even matter anymore? In this article, there is
speculation that many of Kazaa’s users are simply logging off
completely. Not because they want to buy their music, but they are
simply opting for different alternatives instead.
Is Kazaa Over?
Is Kazaa Over?
06/30/2004 06:01 PMAs someone who has never used Kazaa, I have no idea how its use has
changed over time, but apparently,
more and more
users are bailing out. They're fed up with the adware, the
lawsuits (which often target Kazaa users) and all the bogus files. Of
course, while that might sound like wonderful news for the recording
industry, it's actually much worse. Users aren't giving up on file
sharing, they're just switching to other offerings that include more
useful features and less annoying crap (gee, what a surprise). The
article points out that the various lawsuits against Kazaa owner
Sharman appear to be taking their toll as the product has been unable
to keep up. However, this whole thing points to a much more important
fact: users are going to keep migrating to better products that are
further underground. Each time the recording industry thinks they're
declaring victory, they're just making their own job harder -- and I
don't just mean the job of tracking down and suing file sharing
individuals. They're making it increasingly difficult to set up a
system that actually embraces file sharing, while still giving them
the ability to make money. They could still do it, but they've given
no indication that they intend to go down that path. Instead, they
seem to enjoy making things worse for themselves, because that lets
them keep complaining.
Is Kazaa Really Centralized?
Is Kazaa Really Centralized?
02/12/2004 02:44 AMWhile many have been following the story about the music police
raiding
Sharman/Kazaa's office, one competitor thinks it's a good thing.
Streamline, the makers of the Morpheus file sharing application, has a
long history with Kazaa - as they used to license the same technology
until they were accused of not paying their bills and were shut off.
So, clearly, they are a bit biased against Kazaa, but they're bringing
up a very important point. The whole point of having a truly
distributed file sharing network is that it can't be shut down, even
if you shut down the folks who released the software. Yet, Morpheus
was shut down two years ago which made many people
questio
n how this was possible. Over time, these questions have faded,
but the folks behind Morpheus are raising the question again and
saying that
Ka
zaa is really centralized - and have been hiding behind their odd
corporate structure to hide this fact for the last couple years. That
would be quite a revelation, and would seriously damage Kazaa's legal
standing. Thus, the folks behind Morpheus are hoping that the
questionable raid on Kazaa's offices will establish this for certain.
It appears that, once again, there isn't much harmony in the file
sharing world.
