far-L thanks man you gave me my first break in the biz and we damn sure had good times over the years.

Because the story is unfolding theres a lot I can't tell but what I alluded to here was simple.

We didn't have proof who owned PWL at the time. Everyone knew it was Donny but nobody could prove it.

The break came when they quit honoring DMCA requests.

A miscellaneous motion was filed to compel godaddy and domainsbyproxy to release the ownership info on that basis (copyright violation) it was approved and the registrar was served and complied. That was step one, that gave us what was needed to move forward with the rest.

We had long term, medium term and short term strategies in place, some are still being used, when the story can be told, it will be, meantime we are still fighting this war, making sure that it doesn't re-erupt.
