Actually, what they say is "If, however, you do not comply with these requests, Twitter will be forced to consider suspending your Twitter accounts and take such steps as it deems necessary to protect its intellectual property rights".
In short, we are asking you to stop selling your product and give us the name (btw: they can't demand you give them the name, they can't even force you to give them the name, they can offer to buy it though at fair "trade value"). As I said before, there are LOTS of legal presidencies on this type of action and what can and can't be done. In no manor do they suggest that they will or are going to sue you if you don't comply. They do say they will suspend your accounts (acceptable). They could suspend any users suspect of using your product (actually, easily enough). Sue you, doubt it. If you don't want to stop selling, don't want to hand it over carte blanche, or are just plain willing to stand against them, then talk to a lawyer. One other note, not sure when you ACTUALLY received the letter, but in the US 30 days written notice is required. According to the letter dates given they have provided only 12. PS: I'm no lawyer, but I've been around the block a few times and seen this "letter of action" many times before (from both ends). The only answers are "Get a lawyer" or "Give up". Its your choice. - Jeremy PPS: My favorite URL that twitter has yet to do anything against (that I know of) tweetshit.com (parked at godaddy LOL and not mine) On Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 11:08 PM, Dean Collins <d...@cognation.net> wrote: > It’s not that simple – if you read the letter they are telling me I have > to stop selling the software entirely. > > > www.MyTwitterButler.com/I’m_Being_Sued<http://www.mytwitterbutler.com/I%27m_Being_Sued> >
