The record establishes that Darkspilver made fair use of the Watch Tower ad and chart. Consequently, he did not infringe Watch Tower’s copyrighted works, and there is no basis in the DMCA for a subpoena to compel disclosure of his identity. This is not a matter of limiting disclosure to outside counsel only, but that disclosure is not permitted at all under the law. The motion to quash is granted.

I'm curious if they will appeal this ruling to a circuit court.

Russia
by Bill Covert inarticle on msn web news couple of weeks ago.that 200 new names were added to the 1,000 or so already under persecution in russia.
the interesting part was that it was the financial crimes agency that taking the actions.
which would fit orphan crows posts that the persecution in russia was triggered by the watchtower liquidating assets and taking the money out of russia in violation of russian monetary laws profibitating the removal of money out of russia.

OMG, another OC-style (poorly informed speculations) posts.
To begin with, Rosfinmonitoring isn't a "financial crimes agency", it doesn't investigate or prosecute crimes at all. It's a financial intelligence agency charged with, among others, putting anyone suspected, indicted or convicted for offences classified as "terrorist/extremist crimes" - not for financial crimes - on the so-called "List of terrorists and extremists" (and thus making their life miserable - their accounts and cards become frozen, it becomes virtually impossible for them to find a job in the formal sector etc. etc.). In other words, Rosfinmonitoring's involvement proves nothing here. People are put on that list just because they are prosecuted for "extremist crimes", and that agency is involved just because this is one of its exclusive statutory powers.
As to "Russian monetary laws profibitating the removal of money out of Russia", they don't exist. It's just, well, OrphanCrow being OrphanCrow. The same applies to other claims in your posts (for example, Watchtower didn't "liquidat[e] assets and tak[e] the money out of Russia").

Mr. Fallacara asked for one million euros in compensation. American exorbitant awards are uncommon in Europe, so, even if he won the case, IMO he wouldn't receive more than €50,000, plus legal costs and expenses.

Frankly, I cannot find this on Mrs. Anderson's page. Is it a "friends only" post?
Also, it's difficult to understand what exactly happened from that post. After googling, it appears that both Mr. Pucci and Mr. Fallacara eventually lost their cases. But at one point, on 1 June 2004, a judge granted a preliminary injunction to Mr. Pucci and suspended his expulsion from Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses (Italy) on procedural grounds. That decision was reversed six months later. As noted above, both cases were decided in favor of the JW organization.
http://www.infotdgeova.it/un%20sospensione%20revocata.html
And then Mr. Fallacara allegedly lodged a complaint before the ECHR. The only source I found doesn't look credible, but even assuming he really did it, I bet the European Court will dismiss his application either on procedural grounds or as "manifestly ill-founded".

slimboyfat,
Whose point? Watchtower's? I don't know, the only thing I'm aware about is that this report was provided to the Utrecht University research team and to the Dutch Minister of Justice. I think they are going to use it to rebute or challenge the ARC findings before various authorities and bodies.
smiddy3,
And did he lie, misrepresent facts of the case, mislead the court and other parties or use frivolous arguments? Are you aware of any unethical behavior on his part (it isn't unethical to represent "bad guys")? So far, his legal opinion in the "Scientology case" was unanimously accepted by the highest court of Australia.
To clarify, I'm not saying his opinion is absolutely correct. My point is that it isn't meritless.

Why not publish the full report? It's available online, and since I don't need to promote my site by all means, here is the original source:
https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/binaries/rijksoverheid/documenten/rapporten/2020/01/23/tk-bijlage-6-the-final-report-of-the-royal-commission/tk-bijlage-6-the-final-report-of-the-royal-commission.pdf (the official site of the Government of the Netherlands)
slimboyfat If you pay people they will tell you what you want to hear. What’s the point?
David Bennett is one of the most experienced and reputable lawyers in Australia, he is almost 80 year old, and I'm pretty sure he isn't in need for money. Is it fair and reasonable to dismiss his legal opinion just because it was commissioned by Watchtower?

In case someone is interested about it, Paul Gillies' official title is the director of the Office of Public Information of the World Headquarters of Jehovah's Witnesses.
slimboyfat Has anyone got video or audio of Paul Gillies?
There will be a possibility to watch and hear him two months later, online or maybe even in person (in London).
