I hope Righthaven dies from a thousand cuts.

Excellent presentation of some really good news.

It’s my sincerest hope that just one of the suits/claims against RH for attorney fees and costs prevails and exceeds the total of all sums they have thus far extorted from little bloggers and websites and the others present an “EPIC FAIL” to their controlling “business plan.”

I expect to see RH’s recent suits filed against individual posters go the same way.

F’ RH. They are nothing but extortionist thugs. Maggots. Parasites. I so want one of these judges to deliver a huge $ bitchslap to RH.

However—no where did it say in the article that anyone would get their extortion money back. IMHO, they should not only get their money back, RH should be liable for all the lawyers’ fees that were incurred by everyone who had to defend themselves against the lawsuits.

No. But it could set a precedent for others to sue them and recover ‘damages’.
