>    net neutrality rules, Comcast could have censored the site
>    outright.  Digital rights group Fight for the Future has
>    received a cease and desist order from Comcast's lawyers,
>    claiming that Comcastroturf.com - a pro-net neutrality site
>    encouraging Internet users to investigate an astroturfing
>    campaign likely funded by the cable lobby - violates Comcast's
>    "valuable intellectual property." The letter threatens legal
>    action if the domain is not transferred to Comcast's control.
