This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Just read a story about a law firm that was formed to pursue copyright infringement for photos published on line by a few newspapers.

The firm OWNS the copyrighted images produced by these paper, including the Denver Post.

When they find them, they immediately sue whoever posted it - blogger, whoever... No demand to remove it, just an immediate lawsuit.

Reports are they average 5,000 per settlement.

So 'scumbag lawyer' is redundant. You ever hear a lawyer badmouth any member of his profession for this kind of thing? It doesn't happen, they're sorta like muslims not badmouthing muslims - although the bar association happily disbars members who badmouth other members. So even if they want to say something, their own professional organization keeps them from doing so.
