Our old friends, Higbee and Associates, the law firm which makes around $5 million a year doing reverse image searches and then attempting to scare webmasters by threatening to sue them for thousands of dollars over poo poo they are absolutely and in no way responsible for, has attempted to run yet another shakedown on yours truly (me) (Rich "Lowtax" Kyanka) (yours truly). About a decade or so ago, they threatened to sue me because somebody linked to an image of sausage on the forums. Then, about half a decade ago, they threatened to sue me because we used a screencap of a movie for a movie review. Now they're apparently threatening to sue me because one of you assholes linked to Hitler. OH NO ITS HITLER ON IMGUR, gently caress YOU RICH "LOWTAX" KYANKA, GIVE US CASH FOR YOUR IMGUR HITLER. While in the past I might've chosen Leonard "J" Crabs (the "J" stands for "He's Really A Great Lawyer!") to represent me, I felt the more direct approach might be required for a law firm of this nature, as I wanted my message to come across as clearly as possible regarding my own personal opinions of their law firm. After several hours, possibly days, of extensive writing and thorough editing, I settled on this for my response. quote:lowtax@somethingawful.com

This seems to confirm what we've always feared: Leonard J. Crabs has died or else been disbarred.

Lowtax posted:So I cordially invite you to take your pdf, print it out, and ride it like a sybian until the cows come home. Then I invite you to gently caress the cows as well. This is one of the greatest rebuttals ever written.

As you made clear per the legal documentation you wrote, gently caress those guys. Also I can't wait for one of them to look up the word "Sybian" and get fired for improper use of company computers. This is a good response to legal bullshit. Good job, Mr. Lowtax Kyanka. Keep on carrying on with the good fight. No goon should fear linking images of Hitler on this site. Especially as I am working on a megathread about the wonderful glory that is Hitler's butt as we speak. I suggest a counter suit for using the image in question within their letter. I'm sure they didn't pay that guy for use of his image in their shakedown letter to you. AllNewJonasSalk fucked around with this message at 15:44 on Sep 7, 2018 |

Can you countersue on grounds of them using a screenshot of your website without your permission?

Their entire service from the ground up is an absolute scam, and I'm actually quite glad they sent me this letter, because it has energized me to actually start going public again with how much hot garbage they are.
