Cease and Desist!

Postby Tomo » Mon Apr 28, 2008 11:35 am

Chaps,

I'm currently working on a feature article for a UK magazine about the use of cease and desist (C&D) letters to stifle online activity. The bottom line is, has anyone ever received a C&D letter (either in the post or via email) asking them to withdraw a comment or content from their site, complaining about a company name or accusing you of cybersquatting a domain? If so, do you fancy answering a few questions about how you handled it and what happened next? It's a chance to see your name (or a name you choose if you're shy) in WH Smiths in a couple of months time.

If so, drop me a PM.

Thanks to everyone who responded with their stories. It's much appreciated. The feature is in the current issue of PC Plus, and both Wizmo Magic and a friend of The Lomster are featured.

I'll let him know so he can have a look. :D

Oh, that reminds me, did you ever do that other story I gave you info for. I meant to ask about it but totally forgot.

I think it's in next month. Print dates have a habit of slipping, but I'll let you know.
