This Barbara Bauer person is still going about and threatening to sue people for perfectly legal activity.
Barbara Bauer is all whiny that she got listed on the “Twenty Worst Scammers” list when it comes to scamming people who want to become authors. Perhaps, instead, she should STOP SCAMMING WRITERS.
She’s now brought down a major forum for up and coming writers, called Absolute Write, by making irate phone calls and spewing retarded filth that she thinks are lawyer-speak. Posting this woman’s email address on the web, and thereby opening her up to spammers (same email address is readily available at her own website, BTW) does not make the company a spammer. Nor is spamming made illegal in the DMCA. Just… just… ARGH, JUST STOP SUCKING OUT MY INTELLIGENCE! You are SCAMMING people. You were CAUGHT. SUCK IT UP!

Barbara Bauer is much like those ignorant fools that would call in to tech support and demand that they wouldn’t have to pay their bills or that we have to Fix It Right Now because they know a lawyer. I don’t like Barbara Bauer or what she’s doing.
So I, like many other people, are linking Barbara Bauer to the aforementioned Twenty Worst Scammers list, thereby upping Google’s correlation between that list and her name.
Slacktivism? Maybe. Poetic justice? Certainly.
