I hear from the EFF that the Swarthmore students, who were threatened by Diebold for publishing the company's embarrassing internal memos, have prevailed against the electronic voting machine vendor in their lawsuit alleging abuse of copyright. Wendy Seltzer is quoted in the Wired article:

"We weren't out to get Diebold," Seltzer said. "We were out to crack down on the misuse of copyright threats. It's a matter of showing Diebold and companies that there is a cost to making false threats and to show ISPs that they have a remedy if they feel they are being unfairly threatened. It's not free to threaten infringement when there's no good faith claim for infringement."
