How the Think Secret shutdown affects me

Apple shut down Think Secret. They settled with Nick Ciarelli. This is a true example of what corporate harassment and a large legal division with deep pockets can do to chill free speech.

How does this affect me?

What's good for me about this case is that since I copied a bunch of articles without permission from Stepwise and not Apple, I'll be fine. Stepwise doesn't have a legal group. So, even though my actions aren't constitutionally protected, it's all good.

Who's the Loser?

Stepwise is. Not me. I'm the winner. I always win, because I'm smart. And cool. (By the way, I could really use a date next Friday when I go out again for the first time in 5 years. Any interested chicks reading this? Please? I promise I'll shower.)
