Sometimes they get REALLY nasty and will bomb your email (i.e., flood it or other such tactics), spread pornographic images on the net that they claim are you, try to hack your website, complain to your ISP that you're "harassing" them, send you viruses, attempt a Denial of Service attack against your IP address (or your website), even make telephone threats (all of those things have happened to people at R'sity who confronted people who were using their work illegally, by the way; you learn such interesting things hanging out in the Copyright forum here... ;). bonni
