RE: Illegal use of the Plus! logo
Lol i think there is no need to sue them...
do you think it would be fair if you just found that image on the net and thought it would fit very well in your website?.. thats what theyve done probably..and without knowing that it was copyrighted..

I agree. would probably be used to point out how patchou is evil and uses a sponsor or shit like that.

lol... are you all from the United States or is "sueing" now just a common practice all over the world? Don't tell me I'm the last one on this earth to have a little bit of savoir vivre.

RE: Illegal use of the Plus! logo
My hope was that if Patchou got enough money from people illegaly using his copyrighted content, then he would have enough money to take the sponsor out of Plus!. Never going to happen, but anyways.
You're right, sueing really doesn't solve anything, it just makes people angry. And it can also give bad publicity.

Sui'ing does help in some cases but not all, look at cases like Sco an or IBM an Redhat an those companies,

Suing is happening everywhere but it takes Guts just to Talk it over to get the issue resolved , plus its cheaper

RE: Illegal use of the Plus! logo
i dont see why everyone is still posting in this thread, Patchou has already emailed them, thus solving the problem.
should be closed.
