FUCK YOU GFY ARE YOU PREPARED TO GIVE THIS GUY YOUR MONEY?

*********************************

Shuster?s pop-up patent, known officially as the ?Traffic Management Utility? patent, claims that pop-up ads account for ?20 percent of the revenue of the two most profitable Internet segments,? online casinos and ?adult entertainment.? In 2002, the patent claims, these two segments had revenues $9.25 billion.

Shuster wants a slice of that money.

"He said he will demand licensing fees from sites which use pop-ups."

MrPopup · 05-07-2003, 11:34 AM

?Obviously many people do (click popups), 20 percent of the revenue generated in this major market segment is from exit traffic,? he said, echoing claims made in his patent. The figure comes from internal company research, Shuster said.

Oh no.. Hidden Frames too.

Shuster does have time on his side, Aharonian said. The pop-up patent was filed in 1998, and under patent law, challengers would have to show similar technology being used prior to 1997.

Kimmykim · 05-07-2003, 11:42 AM

Oh please, you guys are too funny.

There's this little thing called prior use that the court bases its' decision in part on, as to whether or not they will uphold a patent.

And I got three words for that.

Yeah.. I thought Timon created the pop up.

Joesho · 05-07-2003, 11:43 AM

sounds like he is a scam! but a smart one ! more power to him if his shit is legit.

this is a quote from the article that concerns me greater though:
[ The porn site was pulled down after MSNBC.com?s inquiries because ?some of the women looked like they may be underage,? Shuster said. He said he then filed a complaint about the site with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children]

trust and reputation are worth more than brains most of the time!

"Shuster does have time on his side, Aharonian said. The pop-up patent was filed in 1998, and under patent law, challengers would have to show similar technology being used prior to 1997."

"Schuster wouldn?t comment on whether or not he has sent out any patent infringement notices, and he said that some Internet patents have been frivolous ? but not his.
One-click shopping ?was fairly obvious,? Shuster said, as opposed to his ?more sophisticated mechanism? of doing what he calls controlling ?exit traffic? and others have likened to ?browser hijacking.?
?I don?t think there was anything resembling this business method when we filed for the patent in 1998,? Shuster said.
The patent is explicit, describing computer code that can ?interact with the browser to modify or control one or more of the browser functions, such that the user is directed to a predesignated site or page, instead of accessing the site or page typically associated with the selected browser function.?"

wonder if YNOT has a complete archive from their board. The Wayback Machine has some but it's not complete.
I'm sure there are posts there from 97 referencing 'exit consoles' -would destroy Shuster's case.

always fear failed artists, Hitler couldn't cut it in art school, Shuster was an unsuccessful cartoonist I believe before porn.
