Legal notice because of a hyperlink - Mark Pollard v. Miramax
Film
Mark Pollard, who runs the Kung
Fu Cinema website, has received a letter demanding that he cease online
sales of a Chinese film for which Miramax owns distribution rights. Pallard's
web site only links to various other sites where copies of this film can be
purchased. The Hero (a 2002 film starring Jet Li) review
page on Pollard's site linked to HKFlix.com, a U.S. company that sold Hero
and other films. Although Pollard doesn't actually sell any films on his
website and HKLIX.com also stopped selling the movie some time ago,
Pollard deleted the link after receiving the legal notice.
