Anti-Scientology Site Shut Down 305
Mirele writes "The owner of www.xenu.net, the most comprehensive anti-Scientology website on the Net, reported on alt.religion.scientology that the site was shut down after the ISP received a letter from Scientology's Religious Technology Center alleging trademark infringement. The heart of RTC's complaint is that xenu.net uses their trademarks, the words 'Scientology,' 'Dianetics,' and 'Hubbard,' in the metatags." A look at the
legal history
shows that all the cases that were won involved trademarked terms in meta tags that did not appear on the webpage; that
does not appear to be the case
here. When Playboy unsuccessfully sued a Playmate for metatagging the term "Playmate," she
countersued; does anyone know what the result was? Update: 11/19 03:00: The site's back up.
