Unfortunately, they have a good case... though how taking down their unaffiliated support sites will help them grow their business is less clear. |

My feeling is that this is just ham-fisted IP house-keeping, with the unfortunate side effect of upsetting a bunch fans. I understand that if you don't defend your IP then over time it becomes harder to enforce. Is anyone aware of an action that wasn't based on the trademark in the URL + advertising revenue combo? |
