We've had a bit of a copyrightesque weekend here on OSNews, so it seems only fitting to end this Sunday with yet another story on this subject. This one isn't so much anger-inducing as much as it is what?-inducing - you'll either laugh or cry. It basically comes down to this: a smart lawyer is selling self-help packages to aid victims of the mass-P2P lawsuits in the US, and now the media companies behind those lawsuits are suing this lawyer... For causing them damage.

"These lawyers need sanctioned. And then removed from the gene pool....
Not the RIAA? "
Actually no. In this case the lawyers for the RIAA should have refused to do this as I believe it to be illegal. At the very least its is immoral and will probably bring harm to their law firm. You can have dumbasses as clients, but that doesn't mean you have to be a dumbass yourself.

This is classic. Next thing they will do is sue the guy who invented html cause you know we wouldn't have these problems if it weren't for him. These lawyers need sanctioned. And then removed from the gene pool....
