Trademark and u-tube

Jason points out ("utube.com suit against YouTube.com for too much traffic") that utube is apparently suing youtube because millions of IM'ing idiots spell "you" with only one letter. This has rendered their website useless. Based on the complaint, my first piece of advice would be to tell them to fire their lawyers. Second piece of advice: get universaltubes.com.

The emails that utube got from idiots are hillarious (at paras 34-36 of the complaint). Things like "where r da videos?" and "WHERE THE FUCK ARE ALL THE VIDEOS??? 1.5 BILLION FOR THIS PIECE OF SHIT WEBSITE? GOOGLE GOT TAKEN!". Yikes.
