I read the first one; the second is locked to me at work, but I'll read it tonight at home.
*sigh*
It really doesn't surprise me. The possessiveness of people over stuff...wow. I mean, I am an artist and wholly for artists' rights. I am against free downloading of music or movies or books because it hurts the artist who produced them. But beyond that, this nitpicking over names and details...ugh. I was bowled over by the first article's mention of how DC Comics tried to sue the owner of www.dc.com who had a site about Washington,
DC
. Duh. Washington, DC was around
well
before DC Comics, if we want to go that route. Secondly, something like "DC"--like the word "shire"--is hardly unique. I'm waiting for the day when each letter of the alphabet has a little © tag and requires permission to use.
(Also, what of Shire horses? Do Shire horses have to be called something else now? Or maybe the Shire horses should sue the Tolkien Estate since they had the name first? :^P)
