Yes, Dotcom's words could imply that, but they could also imply "I could have sued you and didn't, so now it's time for you to return the favour."]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130102/08174721543/patent-troll-shell-companies-shake-down-small-businesses-1k-per-employee-using-network-scanner.shtml#c638 Fri, 24 May 2013 05:10:37 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130102/08174721543/patent-troll-shell-companies-shake-down-small-businesses-1k-per-employee-using-network-scanner.shtml#c638 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120824/12382120149/authors-guild-continues-to-battle-present-attacks-another-legal-service-as-infringing.shtml#c1251 Wed, 22 May 2013 20:59:20 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120824/12382120149/authors-guild-continues-to-battle-present-attacks-another-legal-service-as-infringing.shtml#c1251 pay-us-eternaly-for-we-will-be-extending-copyright-on-everything-just-before-it-is-about-to-expire-see-mickey-mouse-protection-act.com/legal/terms/

Actually, I believe it was from the same website where I got Max, my cat, a BSc and an MSc in macroeconomics by filling out a couple of forms and paying $750 on my credit card.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c801 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:10:22 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c801 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c796 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:09:35 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c796 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130522/01382223168/new-york-times-tells-startup-it-cant-even-mention-ny-times.shtml#c650 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:54:17 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130522/01382223168/new-york-times-tells-startup-it-cant-even-mention-ny-times.shtml#c650 the newspaper's ToS if you don't believe me.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130522/01382223168/new-york-times-tells-startup-it-cant-even-mention-ny-times.shtml#c627 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:53:17 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130522/01382223168/new-york-times-tells-startup-it-cant-even-mention-ny-times.shtml#c627 newspaper's ToS if you don't believe me.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130521/18265123163/reporters-find-exposed-personal-data-via-google-threatened-with-cfaa-charges.shtml#c628 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:43:48 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130521/18265123163/reporters-find-exposed-personal-data-via-google-threatened-with-cfaa-charges.shtml#c628 I agree, especially with one of the telcos' crappy attempt to fix their lousy security by replacing the entire web form with their phone number.

Since Timothy is grouping by year, 9/11 doesn't belong in the 2002 grouping, but the 2001 grouping.

(note: the beltway sniper is counted as 11 separate incidents, which is stupid. This number should be 3 incidents total.)
Eleven plus three equals the total of fourteen, so shouldn't the total of incidents be four in a sensible world?]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c453 Tue, 21 May 2013 13:24:41 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c453 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c428 Tue, 21 May 2013 13:19:40 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130520/01450023148/makers-nutella-force-fan-who-created-world-nutella-day-to-shut-it-down-updated.shtml#c428 Yours very sincerely, Sheogorath.
