While the Digg fanboys are fighting over the Cease and Desist order sent by Digg’s lawyers to the owner of DiggGames.com over some trademark concerns and a $100,000 fee in damages, I too got a letter from some law firm.
Aw, I thought it was nice of them to send me a letter threatening to sue me if I don’t do what they want me to do. Now, now, this isn’t the first time I get these kinds of threat but geez, they should do some more researching first before they ask me to bend over.
The Ca t and Connie dutifully helped me draft a reply letter (I’m really glad to have lots of blawger friends… hehehe).
Wait, does the 2000 e-Commerce law say anything about obligations and responsibilities of a (duly registered ) Philippine web hosting provider?
Hi Abe. The E-Commerce Law or Republic Act 8792 has a provision on the “Extent of Liability of a Service Provider.”
Take note of Section 5.j and 30 of the E-Commerce Law.
[...] Nice. Kiven said his PR went up just by sitting with those guys (bloggers at the Globe Innove meet), and I got a threat myself just by sitting beside Abe! [...]
I heard about this, but your post is the best explanation of it. Most other blogs I have read don’t know what they are talking about. However, I must say that your blog is very informative…I am subscribing to your RSS feed right now! Thanks!
