Re: Nice
Are you saying that the scumbags have already achieved their goal, at least partially — to discourage citizens not only to speak out but to seek relevant information?
WordPress does not simply hands out information. While a motion to quash is pending (or after the case is SLAPPed down), they won't cough out anything.

I do a lot of reading, a lot of research, over break," he said.
I wonder what is his definition of "lot": US Constitution is only 6 pages, including the Bill of Rights, and he definitively couldn't master such volume.

Re:
It would be a noble act of Mr. Cooper to trigger a criminal investigation, but there is no money in criminal lawsuits, so understandably it is a civil one.
Steele's deadline to answer the complaint expired on 2/14, but I did not hear about the result yet.

Re: Re: Internet copyright law enforcement agency
Here is another very interesting comment (posted a minute ago):
I received a notice that Limewire was being sued and because I was a paying customer I was entitled to a settlement amount. I filled out a form where the settlement would be sent. This would account for how the perps got my personal information. However, another P2P is called "Spotify" and it posts on facebook songs you download and listen too. The songs I was accused of downloading illegally were downloaded only to Spotify and not Limewire, so maybe facebook was hacked to get my personal info as well.

Update
Thanks, Mike I posted an update, linking previous incarnations of this site cached by Google, and they are even more brazen (funny enough: a picture of their "Director" assigned by "the President" is a stock image, and most likely the crooks did not pay for it).
Also, this comment, if truthful, may shed some light to the mysterious way the crooks obtained more or less valid instances of file-sharing and contact information. Note this is not the first time I hear about the connection between "Limewire settlement scam" and this one.

Note that the words “imprisonment” and “bench warrant for contempt” in an order to show cause are anything but common. Some serious pants soiling is happening somewhere at this moment.
[...]I am just waiting for Alan Cooper’s obituary to appear in a St Kitts and Nevis paper about his tragic passing and how he couldn't wait to testify and show us all how wrong we were about AF holding and it’s many copyright cases [...]

Re: Jordan Rushie's comments
I liked Raul's comment (not public, but he'll forgive me):
(Context: the state case Liberty Media v. Does 1-441 was removed to the federal level after Charles Thomas petitioned, and the case was subsequently voluntarily dismissed.)
That is funny, the only way to complete this comedy is for another attorney to copy Charles' petition to remove and coincidentally find it assigned to the same federal judge.

It is a bit strange that I advocate this way, but to be fair, it's not the pleading itself that failed. Moreover, judge granted the motion yesterday (admittedly, it was not a known fact at the time this TD article was written).
I would love to attribute this event to the ignorance of the judge regarding Prenda and copyright trolls in general, but if it was a shitty memorandum, things may went a different way.

Re: Not infringment
FYI lawyers are OK with borrowing legal arguments, but there is a line, and crossing this line is bad-bad for a purported professional.
Copying a pleading word-to-word is a long shot from "writing a particular motion in a particular way."
