Watch out, Amway’s coming to get you.

Not only do we have to put up with the phone call from a friend we haven’t seen in years to set up a lunch date, only to discover that you’re on their Amway hit-list, we now hove to look over our shoulder should the much despised MLM behemoth take an unfavourable view of our blog posts and Youtube videos.

It appears that Quixtar, a subsidiary of quite possibly the most annoying organisation on the planet (and I include the conservative pentecostal religious right in this assumption) has taken unkindly to a few (suspected) former distributors (mules?) of the organisation’s overpriced wares hanging shit on them online.

When considered in the light of the recent attempt by an accounting software firm to sue popular Australian tech forums Whirlpool for allowing poor reviews of their software to be posted on the site, this is a case all bloggers and forum owners should be keeping an eye on.

Christ - imagine if Microsoft/Apple/GoDaddy, or any other major online players went down this route…..might just shut down the blogosphere…..
