An interesting article: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2010/09/righthaven-saving-the-newspaper-industry-one-lawsuit-at-a-time.ars

Thank You! I will be posting links to more stories about it soon.

Fixed it so it directs people to the home page until I figure out how to link directly. Thanks!

Thank you very much!

I just wanted to thank the few handful that have stepped up to help with the legal fund. We are very far from the initial goal, so if you can... donate a little... it does help. Thanks again.

If you need me to adjust it to a lower level, I can do that. Thank you everyone who have donated so far!

Thank you!

As some of you may be aware, EMT City is being sued over cut and paste content that a member posted from a newspaper. I was offered to settle this case out of court but have decided to fight the case on the principal that I did not cause the alleged violation and that websites should not be held accountable for the actions of a third party. Las Vegas Sun News Story There is no case law as of yet on this type of situation and I am going forward to hopefully create case law to protect this site, and all other forums on the internet. This will cost money. I am looking to you for help in offsetting the cost of litigation. My initial fund raising goal is $10,000 to help the legal fight. I currently have lawyers in two different states and this is a federal case which can require a lot of lawyer man hours. I have set up a new sponsor group called Lifetime Sponsor. This sponsorship never expires and costs 150.00. Having 67 members upgrade to Lifetime Sponsor will get us to that initial goal. To upgrade your membership, click the "Sponsor" menu item on the blue bar at the top. If you can spare it, and want to help keep sites like mine immune to the actions of its members, please help. If you want to donate more, you can pm me and I can give you the paypal address to send it to. Thanks again for your continued support. Admin
