Top 10 Reasons to
Boycott FedEx
2. Attack of FedEx Furniture site and others?
Jose Avilla created FedExFurniture.com to showcase his creative use of FREE FedEx shipping supplies.
The Stanford Center for Internet and Society says "FedEx improperly used the DMCA notice and take-down provisions to get the website at www.fedexfurniture.com taken offline. The company claimed trademark infringement and conversion, neither of which allow it to take advantage of the powerful remedy provided under the DMCA. Neither claim is valid, as the site only uses the word FedEx to describe the appearance of the boxes, and the company gives the boxes away for free without contractual limitations or restrictions. So our client has now put the site back up and continues to display his resourceful use of objects that companies give away for free."
FedEx has a history of trying to remove sites from the internet that they do not agree with including www.FedexFurniture.com, FedUp.com, FedexGroundBeef.com and this site BoycottFedEx.info even if the sites are being used for freedom of speech purposes.
