Apple’s copyright agent

Apple recently sent a frivolous copyright complaint to Something Awful by email. Apple has a history of using their copyright agent to send out frivolous complaints (e.g. when they tried to get FairPlay support removed from VLC). If a company has a complaint that is even remotely legitimate, they’ll have an actual lawyer send you a cease and desist letter by postal mail.

    What about when you don’t list a postal mail address? I’ve seen one where they mentioned in the e-mail that they sent a postal mail but it was returned due to nonexistant address. Lowtax uses netsol and has a private address where NetSol handles his personal mail. NetSol may be expensive, but keeping your privacy sounds like a good reason to pay more. Does Domains by Proxy also offer a mail forwarding service?

    Companies like Apple doesn’t care about customer, they’re only focused in profits and margins.
    I admire your contribution to prevent music monopoly in i-pods.
