RESEARCH IN MOTION (RIM) fired a lawsuit in the direction of Samsung Telecommunications America, claiming that Samsung's BlackJack smart phone violates the BlackBerry trademark.

The Canadian firm wants Samsung to stop selling both its BlackJack and Black Carbon mobile phones and it demands money for the damage it has been caused.

The suit was filed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.

The firm says it thinks "the public" could falsely believe that "Samsung's goods and services are connected with RIM's business". µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
