Tromp Some Trolls
When we first heard about the lawsuits coming against some of the “bigger” podcasters I said, “There isn't much we can do yet.” Well the lawsuits are now turning into letters asking people to buy a license to use this patent. Most of us call that extortion. The good news is we CAN take action, and make the life of people who start these lawsuits very uncomfortable. How? Because there is a new law that we want to get passed that would have the Troll paying the legal fees for any case they lose. COOL!
Here is what you need to do. Go to http://www.eff.org/shield and enter your zip code it will show who your representatives are. Be sure to send them a letter (which you can do with one click) and more importantly CALL THEM. All you have to say is, “I'm calling you today to urge you to support the (SHIELD) Act — H.R. 845. ”
