Yes, but Acro's linke title suggests "bullied", and that by and far is an extreme understatement.

A local home schooled, 20 year old autistic kid and brittle diabetic posted a photo of a TSA pat down on his local blog. Righthaven threatened suit. The kid not only removed the image, he took his site down.

The pricks at Righthaven said that was not good enough. They wanted $6000.00 as an out of court settlement.

I know a local law firm was going to do his case probono. As his attorney pointed out, it was never about the copyright and this clearly showed that it was about the money.

But I never heard a followup story to this. Perhaps I can contact the local news about a followup.

I am well aware of their 'tactics', and I know several webmasters that took their sting the hard way. The payout.

It is just nice seeing them eat their own crap.

Ahh, Revenge is a dish best served cold.
