Sounds like he is an enemy.

We have a lawyer in FL that goes around looking for small businesses that can’t afford to comply with every nuance of the handicapped act.

You know, totally revamping bathrooms in a small restaurant or such. From what I heard he’s destroyed a lot of people financially. And he lines his pockets with the proceeds.

Looks like the righthaven keyword is one to monitor.

Someone said somewhere that Steve Gibson was a pedophile who also smoked crack with hookers. I don’t know who, but I believe it was a Las Vegas Review Journal reporter. He might want to check that out.

If it wasn’t fair use it was shear concern.

Sounds like it might be a good idea to require excerpting on everything from here on out.

I can see a lib lawyer going around buying blog posts and stories that are posted on Conservative sites like FR and then filing lawsuits over copyrights.

Requiring excerpting on everything may save some serious legal headaches in the future.

Jim, what’s with this lack of standing? If there was or is lack of standing; there should be no lawsuit period.

Jim, you have to clobber these creeps. They don’t care about the first amendment. They care only about bleeding people dry.

This guy is “purchasing” from the journal their right to enforce their copyright. However, I would think that whatever right he buys come with whatever defense could have been asserted against the original owner - in this case, the fact that the journal had chosen for some time to “sit” on their rights, and not make the requisite demands under the copyright act’s safe harbor.

To me this looks like driving a final nail in the coffin for the Drive By Media.

Steve Gibson is a parasite who should be disbarred for unethical conduct dishonoring the lawyering profession.

Either that, or the bar should be eliminated. Recreate one where the CITIZENS decide who is and who is not permitted to practice law.
