And the only way you can fight back is through legal channels. Sucks!!
Hiring a lawyer will require money and a less lavish dinner on the table for a whole week, lets help in our little ways to help pay for this. I've donated $100 (yes, I am unfortunately a poor mole), all you rich basterds to do the same.
Mole,
If an issue is morally right, in a generous America you don't have to be rich to bring IP thieves to Justice. See Dodora v. Directi at
http://www.dodora.net for more info. Even the greedy do not profit long from greed.
Don't surrender, Duke! You may or may not get a Preliminary Injunction (PI) against DynoNames.com, but you can win at the end. There are lawyers out there who more concerned about justice than money. I salute Dodora for taking an IP thief like DirectI to the Court.

The bad news for us is we learned that a WildWest reseller named DynoNames.com has been involved in wholesale
theft of content from our site. They even went so far as to erase the author's names, print our articles verbatim
and insert their own ads in the middle of the content they stole from us! It is the most blatant instance of IP theft I've seen to date. Read all about it, along with .info's resurgence on the New TLD chart through the link below:
