OMG, anything can be interpreted as a personal attack by that definition. Kevin, clearly, intelligent educated women are not to be tolerated on this board. I am gone. See ya, wouldn't want to be ya.

Ok, I will have to look that one up. Haven't kept up with what the porno IP attorneys are doing these days, lol! I actually know a few, and crazy as this may seem, some of them are very religious. Guess they can compartmentalize better than I can!

My "assumption" on his level of knowledge was based on and only on what he posted. If he was insulted by that, he needs to think before he posts.

well I hate my $200 pink iPod and I tell my relatives how it was the WORST christmas present they ever got me. This year they got me a $200 Amazon gift card. I am happy.

Were they stealing copyrighted pornography? Or was this an obscenity case? As for recent developments in copyright infringement detection, I would have to look into it. I was talking about the original napster cases, which are what the others were talking about too. Look, there is no debate...

OK, when I see you point out my response as "personal" when the response that I was responding to was just as personal, although passively aggressively personal, but you didn't point that out, it just makes me bang my head against my keyboard. The poster I was responding to was CLEARLY...

That would be you.

I didn't change the topic. I was happy talking about my $200 pink iPod gift that sucked a$$.

yes, the lawsuits educated people but if there were no penalties for violating the law, then no one would care. In the morning when I am not so tired I will try to find what this concept is called, but the basic premise is that laws in which it is hard to detect violators, you have to make...

I know a lot of IP attorneys, it really isn't a large group of people if you are limiting it to IP attorneys who actually have enough clients to sustain a purely IP practice and exclude the wannabes who say they are IP attorneys but practice general business law and only do IP cases when a...

Just to clarify - the intellectual property I own is patented, not copyright, so fair use doesn't enter into the picture with the kinds of intellectual property I own. In general, I think the fair use copyright doctrine should be expanded, but the original napster was about the in toto...

I DID use examples. I analogized intangible property to tangible property and went into the distinction between bands that consented to the free distribution of their music and those who didn't.

When I actually know something about a subject, um, yeah, it IS my call.

Actually, I am. But more importantly, I am an intellectual property owner. If I were only an IP attorney, I would love that others steal IP because it would drum up more work for me, LOL. Seriously, IP attorneys don't look at IP theft as a bad thing; they look at it as a revenue stream. It...

What was flaming? Saying someone didn't understand intellectual property law when they posted things that were wrong wrt intellectual property law? So any time someone posts something that is incorrect and you tell them they are wrong and don't understand what they are posting about that is...

I wasn't insulting anyone. Johnly was posting things that were incorrect wrt intellectual property and I called him on it.

The original Napster was about the organized, large scale, stealing of intellectual property made easy by electronic means. It really wasn't controversial at all. It was theft, pure and simple. The fact that some bands consented to the free distribution of their music doesn't mean that those...

First, I am a miss, not a sir. But please understand, when you make your living off of selling your intellectual property as I do, it is hard not to get worked up about people advocating stealing intellectual property.

I am NOT stepping away from this. I will not back down to opposing people stealing intellectual property. Those who are advocating the theft of intellectual property are WRONG. Report away. I saw Jerry lock down a thread and admonish a poster who wanted info about an app that made it look...

He knows nothing about intellectual property law. THAT is MY call. YOU apparently know nothing about intellectual property law, either. And THAT is MY call, also. Educate yourself about intellectual property law or shut up. You are embarrassing yourself in front of those of us who DO...
