    More Acacia bullshit

    After a 2nd phone conversation with those people, I was told the following:

    Me:
    Ok, now I have taken out the 23 links from my sites which led to videos. Can you send me a letter stating that I am not infringing your so called patent?

    Acacia:
    No, that is not possible, you are linking to galleries which contain pictures and banners, when those banners are clicked, they take you to sites which offer membership for picture and video content.

    Me:
    You must be kidding me!!! I can't link to site or galleries with movies on it, and now you claim I can't link to picture galleries which promote a sponsor which offers videos and pics?????

    Acacia:
    That is correct.

    Me:
    Well, then I will put the movies links on my site and you'll see me in court.

    END

    Those Acacia people are incredible!!!!!

    A couple years back Ticket Master took someone to court for linking to their site, it didn't hold up. Now someone is trying to take you to court for linking to a site that isn't even theirs. Ahaha!

    Right.

    Ride this bull shit to court.

              So basically you're linking to a hosted gallery. The hosted gallery has no movies on it. The hosted gallery is linking to a site that does have movies on it. You're being held responsible for what your links are linking to.

              Yeh, ok.

                  I think they are still confused on how the adult industry works or they are totally overwhelmed with all the shit they have stirred.

                  In their mind if you link, as an affiliate, to a site which offers video, you are facilitating a patent infringement. It sounds totally crazy and un enforceable in a court of law.

                    In their words if you are an affiliate of a sponsor's program, if you link to that program's hosted picture galleries, you are liable to pay the licence fee if the sponsor offers video.

                        Now that you brought it up.... I want that 2% to not be held liable for reading your post on this site from your cable network that has videos somewhere. This is your *Final Notice*.

                          Watch out google, Acacia is on your ass for linking to 13,000,000,000 sites -- with 50% of them going to sites that have links to links to sites with movies. Be scared!

                                People like KRL beg to be taken to court for infringment from fools like Acacia.

                                Drag em through the mud KRL, then do a second run for the hell of it.

                                    I'm sure Acacia links to child pornography at some level -- unless they have no outgoing links to any sites. Someone should point them out to that or file a complaint with the police suspecting them of linking to child pornography. Of course I'm only joking, but it'd be funny.

                                    Cheers,

                                      That was hilarious to read! I'd love to see the judge who's going to review the suit based on those merits. They'll laugh in Acacia's face!

                                          I don't think that's the exact case.. what they may be meaning to say is that if you are linking to a site that has audio/video and that site has not licensed their patent.. .AND you are deriving revenue from sending them traffic (ie. being an affiliate), then you are a 'contributory infringer'.
