      The thing has been popping up in newspapers all over the World.

      It’s bad PR for Disney and outside the US, it’s bad PR for the US also.

      It’s hard to believe that they decided to take their stand on a case destined to be as high profile as this one. What a monumental misstep. But I hope they stick to their guns now, and that precident is set that stops this practice dead in its tracks.

        Well, if they don’t do it now it sets a precedent that you can sue them. They don’t want that happening.

          Not precident in the legal sense, but you’re right - if they back off of this defense and agree to take it to court, they’ll be fielding way more of these potentially because there will be blood in the water.
