Also, Franklin, I found your blog from Jamie's link to your cartoon... I love it!

I truly appreciate it. The best thing about the SFSE imbroglio for me is that it drew my attention to your blog, which I had somehow previously not encountered.

It wasn't actually about copyright, it was about trademark infringement allegations used to shut down eBay auctions. (Sigh. I'm so behind on reformatting old content.) Much mockery was made of the "endless sniping and jealous rage" and the "you know it when you see it" nature of spotting trademark infringement. That's the only link I can find to the article right now; the individual who copied and reposted it apparently found herself dealing with eBay VeRO complaints and was successful against them.
