He's on a search for his dad. His mom doesn't even know who his father is. I mean, WTF? Personally, I think this POS is such a jerk his relatives don't want anything to do with him. Hell, his fiancee &lt;a href="http://rfjason.livejournal.com/389521.html"&gt;dumped him&lt;/a&gt; back in July. Looking at his MySpace photos, he's had lots of girlfriends (I still think hes's a closeted gay ("not that there's anything wrong with that!")) but somehow none of them stick around...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's removed his web site hosted at his house (or Comcast did it for him.) He's been purging info left and right about himself, so this is no surprise. I fully expect him to committ LJ suicide and ditch all his past mubmlings there. Fortunately, I have nice archives of them ready to go, just to make sure his asshattery never leaves the net.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd say this douche would never get another job after this, but apparently he's not had steady employment since 2003 or so anyhow. He's an "independent consultant" of some sort. You can read his resumé (such as it is) in the post below. Make sure you let his past employers know what luck they had in getting rid of them when they did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah yes, the ass that just likes to "push people's buttons." To Jason if you ever see this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm just doing it for the LULZ. &lt;3&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33725065-115801159536473668?l=isackedasimov.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/feeds/115801159536473668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33725065&amp;postID=115801159536473668' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115801159536473668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115801159536473668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/2006/09/rfjason-taking-it-in-endocrine-system.html' title='RFJason taking it in the endocrine system'/><author><name>Hari Seldon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14733211766036149258</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1206/3707/1600/profile.png'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33725065.post-115795728960079979</id><published>2006-09-11T09:09:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2006-09-11T18:56:36.980+03:00</updated><title type='text'>'Tards on a blog</title><content type='html'>Check this ratfucker out: &lt;a href="http://encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php/RFJason_CL_Experiment"&gt;RFJason&lt;/a&gt;, aka Jason Fortuny. He posted a fake BDSM ad on the Seattle Craigslist, collected all the jerks who wrote back and then posted all their emails, photos, *EVERYTHING* as-is on the page above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will cause loss of jobs (some were using .mil accounts, work accounts, etc.) and marriages (lots of married guys.) Granted, using work accounts for those things and sending nude pics to complete strangers has got to be the most completly stupid thing ever, but that still doesn't excuse this jerk's complete lack of caring (just check out &lt;a href="http://rfjason.livejournal.com/414284.html"&gt;these comments&lt;/a&gt; from him - he acts completely clueless.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seriously, WTF?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He had posted his personal info for the all the world to see and then bragged about it. But now the chickenshit has been removing this info. What a hypocrite. Just check out the &lt;a href="http://myspace.com/rfjason"&gt;loser's MySpace page&lt;/a&gt;. He says he likes "Pushing People's Buttons" and claims he gets away with everything he does because he "knows how the system works." Whatever. The lawsuits are already beginning. We'll see how well his system works when he spends the next 5 years paying for expensive lawyers. He'll be getting all the BDSM he wants in pound-me-in-the-ass federal prison soon enough. DIAF.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(But then again ... is this real at all? I mean, there hasn't yet been a single outside verification that any of these people that he's exposing exist? What if this whole thing is a hoax? I really can't believe that someone would be so stupid to do this for real, but I've been proved wrong before.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But just in case, here is his current address and phone number:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;quote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jason Fortuny&lt;br /&gt;RFJason.com&lt;br /&gt;320 10th St&lt;br /&gt;Kirkland, WA 98033&lt;br /&gt;Telephone 425-443-1573&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/quote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or perhaps&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;quote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;726 Kirkland Cir&lt;br /&gt;Apt C203&lt;br /&gt;Kirkland, WA 98033&lt;br /&gt;Telephone 425-576-5417&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/quote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or even&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Telephone 425-486-8169&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, a Deondre Fortuny seemed to share that 576-5417 number for a while. Is that his mom's place? A sister or wife?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kindly supplied by the jerk himself at &lt;a href="http://rfjason.livejournal.com/412568.html"&gt;http://rfjason.livejournal.com/412568.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and his cached homepage at &lt;a href="http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:rfjason.com/resume%3Fpage%3Dresumegraphicdesign"&gt;http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:rfjason.com/resume%3Fpage%3Dresumegraphicdesign&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you can get his complete page circa 2005 from the Internet Archive &lt;a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20050211124418/rfjason.com/resume/"&gt;http://web.archive.org/web/20050211124418/rfjason.com/resume/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I'll leave you with this, my readers.

Yes, that's just what they are ... huge thorns in the side of anyone trying to do anything productive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A name better fitting could be agruably applied, espcecially for those lucky enough to be graced by their offers of lawsuits: &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leech"&gt;Hirudinea&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More to come very, very soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33725065-115748975508374228?l=isackedasimov.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/feeds/115748975508374228/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33725065&amp;postID=115748975508374228' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115748975508374228'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115748975508374228'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/2006/09/acacia-so-appropriate.html' title='Acacia .. so appropriate'/><author><name>Hari Seldon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14733211766036149258</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1206/3707/1600/profile.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33725065.post-115714796722479875</id><published>2006-09-02T00:58:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2006-09-05T20:43:52.973+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Acacia, ne plus ultra patent troll</title><content type='html'>The straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak, and caused the creation of this blog was the receipt of the letter by a company I am affiliated with. This letter, from Acacia Technologies, was nothing more than an extortion attempt, which any mob boss would be proud of.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a nutshell, they claim to have a patent on, of all things, hyperlinks when used in conjunction with some sort of distributable media, i.e., CDs or DVDs. This company, like just about all software companies with a retail side, does distribute their products on CDs. On these CDs are documentation, which contain links to web sites for things like tech support, documentation, and in copyright notices. This, Acacia claims, infringes upon their junk patent, &lt;a href="http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6314574.html"&gt;#6,314,574&lt;/a&gt;. Go ahead and read it now. See if you can make sense of it. I'm not a lawyer by any means, but the convoluted and overly broad language in this document would, I bet, cause laughing fits amonst those who are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what we have here is a claim that putting a hyperlink on a CD is patentable. This is clearly bullshit, as I'm sure they well know, and means that nearly every software product in the stores now infringes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, given that this patent is such crap as to be laughable, why would I call their tactics extortionary? Well, in their letter, they use the language I've come to recognize as that of the bully. I've run into it when leasing offices in Manhattan, and setting up trade booths in Chicago: Give us what we want, or "something bad" might happen. Specifically the phrases, "This patent has been enforced via prior litigation" and "We hope to avoice further litigation." and then the offer to "...amicable resolve his matter by licensing the Patent..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, just like the guys in Chicago who told me to make sure they plugged in all my extension cords (at $25 a piece) so to make sure I "didn't suddenly lose power in the middle of the show."&lt;br /&gt;I told them to piss off, and if it were up to me, I'd tell these guys to piss off too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leeches like these shouldn't be allowed to prosper in our society. Using tactics like these to extort money from legitimate businesses is the sort of thing that should land people in jail, not in articles such as this one from &lt;a href="http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/careers/careerstemplate.jsp?ArticleId=i060404"&gt;IEEE Spectrum.  &lt;/a&gt;(More on this article later.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will be much more of this soon, my readers. Much more, as we dig up info on these jerks I'm sure they won't want published. But in this day and age, few things can remain hidden for long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33725065-115714796722479875?l=isackedasimov.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/feeds/115714796722479875/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33725065&amp;postID=115714796722479875' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115714796722479875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33725065/posts/default/115714796722479875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isackedasimov.blogspot.com/2006/09/acacia-ne-plus-ultra-patent-troll.html' title='Acacia, ne plus ultra patent troll'/><author><name>Hari Seldon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14733211766036149258</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1206/3707/1600/profile.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33725065.post-115714550600685989</id><published>2006-09-02T00:12:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2006-09-02T00:32:32.613+03:00</updated><title type='text'>My Alter-Ego</title><content type='html'>Greetings to all who happen here.
