Don't be naive. People get sued over things that aren't codified in any law or part of the HTTP standard every day.
This is a bit of a legal grey area. The kind of thing that BigCos with expensive lawyers like to sue over. Would you really be willing to pay lawyers to settle it in court once and for all?
- smosher 15y agoI think you misunderstood. I wasn't commenting on the likelihood, I was commenting on the justice of it. I'm not speaking as a practitioner of law (I am not one), I'm speaking as a subject of the law and it's equally my responsibility to respond to injustice.
- keeperofdakeys 15y agoSuing is not about what is lawful or not; suing is part of the civil court, not court of law. Anyone can sue anybody for any reason and the judge has the responsibility to decide if any wrongs were performed, and if they deserve compensation. So it isn't about what is lawful, it is about what bullshit they can convince the judge of, so getting a clued in judge is what you need.
