Jim Has a Run-In With Prenda Law Jerk, and Ends Up on Ars
Tim:
The legal system is in a mess indeed. How can these creatures get away with this - very frustrating and painful experience to go through I'm sure. Puts some perspective on the US system. Good luck.
Bizarroterl:
There is justice in the world:

Amazing. I didn't think it would ever happen.
I think I'll send him a sympathy card.
Bizarroterl:
The wheels of justice are turning.

--- Quote from: glynor on December 16, 2014, 04:48:45 pm ---Paul Hansmeier is (or was) one of the primary forces behind Prenda Law, which was one of the most aggressive (and disgusting) of the porn-copyright trolling lawsuit "organizations" out there over the past couple years. Their basic modus operandi was to send letters to people who may (or may not have, they didn't try to find out basically at all) have downloaded porn illicitly, threatening to sue them and tell their neighbors all the horrible porn things they were downloading, and said if you pay us $3k now, we'll go away quietly.

Not to make light of Jim's situation (which sucks)... tell my neighbours I download porn. I'll wear it as a badge of honour ;D
