Well,,THIS is interesting enough to make me being away for a moment from my fandom and posting random topic here.
i just can't believe that something like this happen..
it's ridiculous that such a big corp to go after a guy who has similar name..blah..
just because you have a similar name, so you can't make a domain or anything related to it...
