from their legal position, webmasters opinions and grievances are irrelevant. it's the law that matters. if someone started crusading, saying TeamClickCash.com is nothing but a bunch of lying, stealing cunts... it should be expected that you would lash out eventually and their rationalizations for calling you that, for making defamatory and liabelous remarks and orchestrating an effort to directly hurt your business are are not going to be points you would be willing to sit and ponder in semantical arguments and philosophical discussions. you will move agressively to protect your business and your income. further, if you were a public company as they are, it would be mandatory that you take action.
that was my point. i just thought it was an interesting point and people should also consider the fact is that Zango has the most qualified and connected attorneys in the US representing them to sueanyone here... and those saying "hey man, just use this script" could suddenly find themselves in a position where they are forced to respond and defend themselves in a costly legal fight that achieved absolutely nothing.

So what happens today is only relivant but what happend last week is not. I'll have to remember that, it doesn;t matter what a company has done from day 1 - present, it just matters what they do in the last 24 hours
You have no point. I dont care what their attornies and their company is calling their shit.
How do you compare if some people started calling me lying, cheating. etc...
If i admitted I cheated, If half the net accused me of cheating, etc.. then yes, they could call me a cheater. If just "some people" started saying it with no basis, then no that would not be legal.
Why would it be illegal for someone to offer an "adware" program that notify people they have zango on their computer and how to get rid of it ? If they people agreed to the TOS they could do what they want with their pc, isn't that Zango's whole defense, i would htink that would have to work both ways ?
