re: #169 TedStriker

To be clear, I never looked at Popehat’s blogroll and I don’t frequent the place; I just basically read their coverage of the whole Charles Carreon vs. The Oatmeal deal via Ars Technica. Maybe, I was relying on a faulty read of how Popehat/Ken White leans; in any case, I had no idea of your personal dealings with them, which is why I was surprised to hear you say that White is a wingnut.

The write-ups of the Prenda Law saga at Popehat are worth reading, purely for the entertainment value.

The brief summary is that Prenda Law had the enterprising business model of sending unsolicited pornography to people and then threatening to sue them for copyright infringement unless they were paid off. The principals and legal counsel of this shady enterprise are presently in the process of getting raked over the coals in Federal Court.
