[News] Serious allegations about H&P | ANN.lu |

Amigo follows up on serious allegations about H&P and says: "I also just asked Unisys as it says here, and am waiting for a reply. If true, H&P could probably be forced to close."
[ If H&P indeed didn't pay royalties for Unisys' GIF algorithm, they might not be forced to close per se, but if this is indeed true, and Unisys decides to sue, they might have to pay some serious fines. Also note that while this is not in unmoderated, it's highly speculative, unconfirmed and generally should be taken with the usual grain of salt - CK ]

Serious allegations about H&P : Comment 51 of 164 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Dave on 09-Nov-2001 06:49 GMT | In reply to Comment 5 (Christian Kemp): Christian, allegations are not *fine* but acceptable. But IMHO and of others this should
have been demoted to the unmoderated section with the rest of the unsubstantiated drivel
that has started to appear recently.
Oh and thats not all "anti-Amiga backers" allegations, its the other way round too. In my view
website owners need to take editorial responsibility to the same degree as print magazines.
I agreed with your stance over a month ago deleting some similar news stories for the
reason that they were unsubstantiated and doing harm. I think you should take a similar line
here - regardless of whether you secretly support MorphOS or not - oh or AmigaOS or not ( for balance ).
By promoting it out of unmoderated you are giving it credibility - and the disclaimer you
put on the story in my view is not sufficient. Too many people are reporting dirt as
fact at the moment.
