Re: Public Citizen overlooks court jurisdiction over the host "The judge got jurisdiction because the web sites hosting company(Dynadot) is in the US."
what does that have to do with it?
You never cease to amaze me, did you even read the article? I am not a lawyer, but even I can see a lot of problems with this case.
1. The judge acted too swiftly, without knowing if he even had jurisdiction.
2. The web hosting company should have challenged the order.
3. Since when do foreign companies get fast trak (I believe it is called exparte,but could be wrong) service from a judge.
4. Closing the whole site was overkill, and probably not legal

1 edit | said by woody7:1. The judge acted too swiftly, without knowing if he even had jurisdiction. The article posted on DSLR a week or two ago said the bank asserted copyright infringement. Federal court has jurisdiction.
said by woody7:2. The web hosting company should have challenged the order. If I was the hosting company and someone (not even the court) said one of my customers was hosting stolen, copyrighted materials why would I have even the slightest desire to challenge that? EDIT to add: When the materials openly claim to be stolen by a former employee, and bear the owner's logo, etc?
said by woody7:4. Closing the whole site was overkill, and probably not legal I remember from the article a week or two ago, the site owner played coy, dodging the issue until it was too late.

The whole case is BS on a bunch of levels and legal issues.
If there is any justice left in the world, it should be swiftly overturned. |

Just because someone "asserts" something, doesn't it have to be proven/disproven?
"If I was the hosting company and someone (not even the court) said one of my customers was hosting stolen, copyrighted materials why would I have even the slightest desire to challenge that?

Other than hosting child pornography I thought that you couldn't hold the hosting company libel? and Isn't that kind of presumptuous for a judge to take the word of the company without even them having complained to the authorities?Wheres the crime without a police report? So a business says that it has private information placed on a website illegally and the court didn't ask for some kind of proof that a crime had been even committed? I believe that there is some kind of process, and It probably wasn't fully followed.l Peace -- BlooMe |

said by woody7:Other than hosting child pornography I thought that you couldn't hold the hosting company libel? I think the issue is that the bank claimed the web site was unresponsive to requests to remedy the matter outside of court.
Some will say "but they didn't identify who they were, or what they wanted." I read the email exchange and all I see is wikileaks playing a cat-and-mouse game. The end result is that that they should have put the bank's attorney in touch with an attorney (any attorney).
