One time

One bloody time it is possible to read about a foolish lawsuit that
was properly tossed. Merry Christmas.

But will she sue hed boyfriend for $3M?

That would be the right end for this story.

yahoo could have / should have givin her the password, and she could have deleted the profile her self!

Boy's bathroom

Are you going to sue the school too?

[casper2004]

The guy sounds like a real yahoo!

If the photos were taken of her without her knowledge than she has a case, if she agreed to have her pictures taken, it's her own fault and should get no money at all.

What a bitch...

She shouldn't take naked pictures of herself in the first place and it's her fault if; she gave this pictures to her boyfriend!!!!

Hey wait a minute

This says "Also called Sec. 230, that law says, "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider."

Does this dection also apply to DRM ? Does this mean that as a user of an interactive computer service like P2P should not be treated as the publisher?

[swwg69]

Thats right - P2P not publisher

That is why napster was not guilty of all the
instances of infringement. It was guilty of
creating a system for infringing.
More of a RICO act violation than DMCA.

She should have Mitnicked Yahoo!
"Its my account and my boyfriend is messing with
it." "Just look at the pictures, its me,
so give me the password."
But that does not get you 3 MILLION DOLLARS
wwaayyyhhaaaaa!
