And people wonder why lawyers are generally disliked.

Not good...
It depends. If it's a public company, there is a duty to the shareholdes in some cases. While not the case for publically held CCP, they'd still have to be negligent at this point, having suffered a DoS attack coordernated by a few individuals, not to consider legal action. Allowing yourself to be swayed by DoS attacks is a sure way to invite them in the future when you annoy any segement of the playerbase, to its general detriment.

Originally by: Imperius Blackheart I am pretty sure as a British citizen if I commited a DOS attack on a US based business website I would be in court like a shot.
Currently going through the courts - google "Gary McKinnon"
NoghriViR, the evidence for the DoS attack? Well yes, the forum access IP logs would be provided. Your point? (And they'd take action against individuals, Goonswarm is not even a legal fiction).

Legal action exposes people to *Discovery*.
Somehow I don't think anyone on either side wants discovery.
This is a non-issue and it was just stupid for Kerion to mention "legal resources".
Yeah, exactly "We're suing you!" "Fine. Our lawyers say that we'll need copies of all your forums server logs, game server logs, meeting minutes, petition database, etc, etc. from the last X years. In triplicate. Any part or parts of that information may or may not be made available to the public as part of the court records"
"Judge, the plaintif is going on a fishing expedition unrelated to the matter at hand, is not providing the proper..."
See: SCO vs lots of people (http://www.groklaw.net/)
You can't do that. Plus, they'd not be relevant to a DoS case.

Originally by: Ammoina If they did do that... the resulting storm would be so gigantic CCP would never recover from the bad PR.
I think we have a different definition of bad PR. I'd like to see toasted bees, m'self.

Because you know, $45k/month of income is something a corporation like CCP is going to just shrug off...
Greater good of everyone else, and the people who'd otherwise quit. Cheap.
