C’mon we are better than this here. Firstly be friendlier. Secondly they just tried to explain why, given the current legal system, sometimes a company has to do stuff that at first glance seems like a bad business decision.
I agree that the system is flawed, and that IP laws need a big reformation, that’s the case pretty much worldwide I might add. But just describing the status quo is not “corporate sympathy” and attacking people for it is bad manners at least.
Edit: Also, just for clarification, this whole issue is not copyright but trademark right related, which can be even stranger than copyright laws.
Let me know if you ever register a trademark. I’ll be delighted to infringe on it day one so you can lose it. After all, according to you, defending it is utter bullshit.
