Facebook sues Friend Finder

This posted already?

Facebook, Inc. has filed a lawsuit against Various, Inc., parent company of FriendFinder, along with a couple related companies and John Does. The case was filed in U.S. District Court, Northern District of Califonia on Wednesday.

The entire complaint hasn?t been posted online, but it involves Various, Inc?s trademarks for FriendFinder and AdultFriendFinder.

I know that Facebook has called its tool for finding new friends on Facebook ?Friend Finder? in the past, although I don?t see much branding for that now. It?s not clear if this action is related to that.

I?ll post more details when the court posts the actual complaint.

Facebook recently sued a Montreal guy for $1 Billion Dollars, and won their case. Of course they can never collect but they still sued for that insane amount, and won.

If I were Facebookofsex.com, I would have my lawyers dotting their i's and crossing their t's... has anyone from their firm checked into possible copyright or trademark suits from Facebook?
