Patrick S. Tomlinson, failed sci-fi author, sued 60 anonymous posters on the Internet. He lost, and was ordered to pay costs. Part of costs paid included rights to a headshot photo, which he prefers to use as an avatar. The new owner DMCAs him every time he tries to use it lol

This is the picture, by the way. You might think "that's not special, why not just take another one?" It is because Patrick S. Tomlinson took this photo 10 years ago and now he is fat and old. He cannot recreate it.

Interesting that you're creating your own cloud for your terrorist website. These buffoons have no idea about the Internet at all.

Our setup is currently so distributed it may actually qualify for the term 'cloud'. There is a quasi-CDN happening, because the base server is stuck on 1Gbps and I levy forward caches to preserve its bandwidth.

He does this hundreds of times a day. Every single one is typed out, never copied. @stealthygeek will respond to every single thing from every single account no matter what. It's a sight to behold.

I remember his failed assault of the O&A subreddit.

I know people that have deliberately bankrupted themselves rather than pay out in civil court cases. Tomlinson for all his talk just bent over and grabbed his ankles.
