One of my favorite things to do every day is to write on the Digital Point forum that is owned by Shawn Hogan. According to a press relase ebay have now sued Shawn and friends for cookie stuffing. The law suit did not say if they did the stuffing on Digital Point or some other website.

Three men defrauded eBay in a “cookie stuffing” scheme that made it appear the men’s companies should be paid commissions, eBay claims in Federal Court. It sued Shawn Hogan and Digital Point Solutions, Todd Dunning and Kessler’s Flying Circus, and Brian Dunning and Thunderwood Holdings.
eBay says the men devised software programs that, “unbeknownst to the [computer] user, redirected the user’s computer to the eBay Web site without the user actually clicking on an eBay advertisement link, or even becoming aware that they had left the page they were previously viewing. As a result, the eBay site would be prompted to drop an eBay cookie on the user’s computer even though the user never clicked on an eBay advertisement or even realized that their computer had ever visited the eBay site.”
The complaint continues: “once the cookie was stuffed on the user’s computer by one or more of the defendant’s any future revenue actions initiated by that user when the user later visited eBay intentionally, and not as a result of any advertisement places by defendants, appeared to be eligible for commissions payable to one of the defendants”.
eBay claims the defendants also used deceptive means to prevent it from discovering the fraud, and to conceal it. eBay demands compensatory, treble and punitive damages.

Gaming Pirates around the world are crying foul play when EA is protecting their new game with a piracy protection lock that requires users to register on a website.

Mass Effect requires that you register online and just bought a new webcam and they required the same thing. I think that’s completely ok to ask the users and buyers to do that. Why should the maker of different products give update and support to pirated games and products.

This is much better way then install some spy software on your computer like StarForce did a few month ago.

The only reason you might have a problem with this is when you downloaded the program from the internet and not paid for it.
