Just out of curiosity...
How many pages were there?
I don't know. I didn't do the printing. The law firm did it. But I remember our lawyer mentioning that they fedexed over 20 cartons of printing paper. Assuming 500 sheets per ream and 5 reams per carton, that would be 50,000 sheets, or 100,000 pages since it was printed on both sides to be even more annoying.
That's beautiful. Simply beautiful.
Damn. Did they ever find your actual source code in there
No idea. That company folded before it could even respond. It was a typical dot-com with a completely ridiculous business model. That's why our lawyer decided to fight the suit: he figured they'd collapse soon anyway, so we might as well milk the lawsuit for the publicity.
Approximately one forest
Since Lemmy isn’t pay to win, you get this: 🎖️
This just made me briefly wish lemmy had awards
Smart man
Epic!
Please tell me they used bike couriers.
Your lawyer destroyed a forest to comply maliciously. Sort of not the best way to do it IMO.
Na, they've got managed forests and it's fine. Your comment had me google to see and it's actually pretty interesting.
As somebody who lives in an area with an active logging industry, I can tell you that parts of the world with an economic interest in their forests still have lots of trees whereas areas that do not are very likely to have destroyed most of theirs.
The relationship between paper use and the environment is not what you think it is.
