There seems to be a vandal(s) going around inserting references to a few different things:

  • The Varian v. Delfino case
  • The Delfino v. Moore case
  • Negatively mention Varian Medical Systems in as many places as possible, especially with regard to filming in restrooms
  • Negatively mention Agilent in as many places as possible, especially in reference to employing Moore from the above mentioned case.
  • Push references to SLAPP
  • Push references to Tory v. Cochran
  • Push the book Be Careful Who You SLAPP, especially a link to mobeta.com, the publisher's site.

It appears that this vandal(s) could be involved in the case personally. Most of the IPs are from the San Francisco area.

User:Lotsofissues brought this up on IRC, and now there are a few of us there working on it (10:03, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)) Feel free to use this space for any notes regarding this vandalism while we're compiling it.
