Acacia's use of Cnet property
 

Can someone check their Acacia paperwork for the following:


From Cnet site at

Does the Cnet stuff from Acacia say the above? If not, please post a copy. I'd like to let Cnet know.

They used this company to do their reprinting.

RMS (Reprint Management Services)

:Graucho

Im sure they did.. i meen who cares.. really.. you think it will make any difference even if they didnt get their permission?

Isn't that the point of this whole issue?

yes

.

My point is, they arent stupid.. I meen Yes, We are all against them, but its not like a two clueless guys in a basement somewhere.. of course they have cnets permission.

They can't be TOO smart.

They're charging multiple times for the same infringement. (The content provider, the affiliate program and the affiliates.)

They're sending packets out to people using usernames (some of them obscene) instead of doing research to find out who the people actually are.

They're sending out packets to DESIGNERS, some of whom have no sites at all.

They're sending out packets to people who don't have any videos at all but that just LINK to sites that do....

They don't sound too bright to me... :1orglaugh
