It's been over 2 years now with the Acacia Saga.. August 12th marks the 2nd year anniversary of FightThePatent.com

For many, Acacia is a joke or something that you may have forgotten about, but the sad note is that companies in the defense group have collectively paid out close to $2M in legal fees, to not only standup to patent extortion, but to stand up for all adult websites that have audio/video.

The companies that signed a license with Acacia made their own "business decision", and I have never been in favor of blacklisting or trying to single them out.

On the flipside, it sure would be nice to the companies listed below be shown some luv by using their programs and products.

Money that these companies make from the businesses goes into pot for a shared defense. It would have been ALOT cheaper for these companies to have settled (and given the names below, you know they have the money to do so), they could have gotten a sweetheart deal, and then Acacia could have just steamrolled through all of the webmasters.

It is because of those below that Acacia has not filed any additional lawsuits, and these guys are going to squash Acacia's claims.

Since the cable companies have been consolidated with the internet defendants, there is some court slowdown as the cases get combined, but the end is still coming for Acacia.

While i have been quite vocal over Acacia, it is these companies that are doing the walk and talk. please show some appreciation to these companies:


Video Secrets
Homegrown Video
Lightspeed
ARS
Gamelink
Ademia (SunUp)
AEBN
Audio Communications
National A-1 Advert (hotmovies.com)
Silver Cash
Max Cash
Club Jenna
Adult.com

(if i have left anyone out, please email me and i will be sure to update my list)


Fight the low hanging fruit!
