        -0700 Subject: are you proving a 
        point? Gentlemen: I am an Adobe System stockholder 
        and an Adobe product user, today, but probably not tomorrow. I suppose you people think 
        you are proving some kind of point by using the courts for slap and scare 
        tactics in attacking an innocent kid who doesn't speak English well and 
        can't defend himself. This is about the lowest form of violation of civil 
        rights I can imagine. If you want to sue his company, then do so in international civil court. not by strong-arm personal intimidation -- this reminds me of Nazi Germany for god's sake. What could you possibly be thinking. Its bad business practice and a bad P. R. move by Adobe, not only will you forever be remembered as the human rights violators, but surely there will be more copies of that software around than there are of DeCSS in one week. You have INSURED the demise 
        of your eBook system. I am ashamed to be in this 
        profession and ashamed to be an Adobe stock holder, and right now you 
        make me ashamed to be an American. Drop the charges and apologize, pay 
        the kids way back home and say you are sorry. Sincerely,
