Received my first cease and desist...
...and it's for a link in a spam comment I never got around to deleting.
Site A is claiming trademark infringement because a link in a comment on one of my sites has their name while the url points to that of a competitor.
I am apparently engaging in "unauthorized marketing" here.
Now, I should have deleted the comment spam, but it was human written and relevant to the post, so I let it pass. I have no skin in the game, I'm not getting paid for the link so I probably would've deleted it if asked nicely.
Anyone ever get into legal trouble for linking to the wrong site? Link to playboy going to penthouse, that sort of thing? Seems a bit of a stretch.
