I dont think it was a stupid move to go after Colleges and Universities per se... they could have went after a ton of small schools who offer distance learning that would not fight and could not afford to fight... but they sent a legal threat to Stanford of all places, which is so far beyond bizarre and ignorant.
Hmm....
1) Stanford Law.
2) The Internet as we know it, started at Stanford.
3) Many professors at Stanford were originally involved in DARPA Net
4) Many students from Stanford created the technology that even today, drives the Internet.
5) Many fortune 500 tech companies like Cisco, Sun Microsystems, Lucent, Netscape etc started at Stanford.
that would have been the last place i would have tried to fuck with if i was Acacia.... but oh well, thats what they get for being a greedy bulk mailer running an extortion racket and pump and dump scheme.
