- <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/31/why-were-suing-facebook-for-25-million-in-statutory-damages/" target="_blank">Tech Crunch sues Facebook</a></p>
<p>and last but not least, he now pulls CNET into the mix by getting them to run this <a href="http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9906881-7.html" target="_blank">article</a>.</p>
