I can tell you this....the initial packets that were sent out last year to those who were not sued, and the lawsuits that were filed against some of us, ALL came from the whois database. We know this for a fact because of certain misspellings and addresses used.
These new packets that are being received now most likely came from three sources:
1. More whois
2. Internext
3. Content providers who were stupid enough to talk these people and/or sign the license agreements. As part of the licensing package, content providers were required to give Acacia information on all of their customers. According to Acacia..the customer must also sign a license and pay.
If you get this packet.. DO NOT CONTACT THEM! Don't be stupid and think that you are smarter than them. Don't be stupid and think you can call anonymously and get information from them. They will get more information from you then you will get from them. Contact Far-L immediately. He will be able to provide you more information.
