Looks like QCOM is not too happy about what one thread has been posting.....

Advice re: Subpoena info

nemonoman 10/4/00 9:59 pm

I called Derek Aberle, the attorney referenced in the lawsuit against Does 1-20.

I'm not sure who is being sued exactly. Apparently the suit is about revealing QCOM confidential information.

As near as I can figure out, the suit is intended to find out who has been revealing insider qualcomm information to posters on QRTS. (All the supboenaed information in the Yahoo supboena is for real names of QRTS members, based on what I heard Aberle tell me. Notice how careful I am about wording this Mr. Aberle?)


Why I'm on the list is messages 33056 and 186. You could look them up.

In both messages I mention contact with employees of Qcom.

I now have to come clean.

I lie a lot.

The "friends" I reference in my posts are figments of my imagination. Ask around, I have no friends.

Those "friends" are just as real as Nemo Wireless, as NCDMA, as Nemo Wireless's World Dominion Tower Headquarters overlooking Neptune Avenue in Leucadia. They're REAL TO ME!

But those bound by the strictures of reality will never find Nemo Wireless -- it doesn't exist.

Neither, sadly, do those "friends."

Yes, in order to make myself look cool and sharp and inside and with it, I MADE UP contact with "insiders". I pretended to have friends. Forgive me, but it's true.

I did this to give credibility and a face and INTELLIGENCE to information, that was, frankly, only my speculation based on freely available public information.

So maybe I'm going to get sued now. Maybe - worse - the Truth Squad is going track down and fire the "insiders" who told me that Spinco was a good idea. The ones who told me the ERICY was going to buy QPE.

Since they don't exist, I worry.

I worry that in their zeal to shoot non-existent targets, they might shoot at actual persons.

When I think of somoeone shooting the innocent for the sins of a fool, I regret these stupid fictions, that seemed to me at the time benign.

I apologize to all members of this club for pretending about having had insider sources when all I had was information from 10Ks and the SI and Food Fight boards.

ADVICE: Just a note to the creative among us: if you want to write fiction, better to describe someone OTHER than a Qcom employee as handing you information. Little green men, perhaps, or George W Bush. Don't foresee anybody suing them.
