Title: Good Article about the Emergence of Anti-Troll Sites
Post by: Greg Troy (KeepFighting) on February 27, 2013, 11:36:18 AM

I found a good article today over at Ars Technica talking about how sites like www.FightCopyrightTrolls.com and www.DieTrollDie.com are informing people about the copyright trolls and how to fight back. This article was written more towards the P2P/bit torrent porn trolls as opposed to the stock photo trolls but it is still a good article and shows our story and fight is starting to get picked up more places and reported on.

The emergence of sites with names like Fight Copyright Trolls and DieTrollDie is creating headaches for the porn trolls. The trolls' threats often rest on shaky legal foundations, but they've been able to intimidate many victims into paying up anyway. Anti-troll sites closely monitor ongoing troll lawsuits, publicize troll misconduct, and offer their fellow John Does advice on fighting back. By providing victims with accurate information and moral support, anti-troll sites make it much harder for trolls to intimidate them. And by documenting trolls' misconduct, they provide defense attorneys with ammunition to discredit the trolls in the eyes of judges.

You beat me to it. I really did enjoy this article. I have tremendous respect for both of those websites and the guys who operate them anonymously.
