Apic Has Not Closed Down

WE ARE STILL HERE

That was an internal email that was wrongfully posted and reworded.

It said ?If we do not get the support? we will close down.



Thanks for asking.



Steve Easton















Hi APIC,

Are you guys closed down? Word on the webmaster boards is that Steve Easton and APIC are out of business. This is a statement supposedly from Steve Easton :



"As of Monday Sept 7, APIC will be closed permanently.

Recent lawsuits have not received adequate financial support to make continuing a worthwhile cause.

I wish you all the best of luck.

Steve Easton"



Is this true or is there more to this story?

For the record, I am not affiliated in any way with APIC or Steve Easton. I simply asked the question and posted the response I received.

Well, I'm one of those webmasters whose have yet to receive a flawed and incorrect 'cease and desist' notice, so I don't particularly care........ yet.

But I was really pissed off when Spews was reported as closing and it came back to life. That suxed big time.

Anyone who blatantly accuses me of using copyrighted content on a site that I don't even own, or never even heard of isn't the sharpest tool in the shed...

THEN... when they come back and tell me I need to shut MY site down anyway for absolutely no reason.. I'm thinkin' someone is a full bubble off level...

Shutting down wouldn't cause a loss of sleep at my place

Thats exactly what happens when you get someone in the biz doing something they have no clue how to do to start with. INstead of supporting such a jerkoff cause as this why not put your money into technology that will track your content for you and then settle your own cases.
