"Popular mobile phone community HowardForums.com is being hit with take-down notices from MobiTV. At issue is the fact that a HowardForums community MEMBER uncovered a publicly accessible URL for MobiTV's television stream. This URL is not ENCRYPTED or authenticated in any way, and yet MobiTV sent site owner Howard Chui a cease-and-desist letter for hosting a forum with the public URL, claiming that doing so is equivalent to hacking their service."

take-down notices
publicly accessible URLLegally speaking MobiTV doesn't have a LEG to stand on...Oh, come now...you don't want them to admit to MAKING a rather LARGE mistake, now do you? I would love it if they did. They should. To me, it makes them more credible than just throwing to the lawyers...
