Corporate predators stoop to new lows, harassing and threatening children
and adolescent persons into forfeiting their intellectual efforts and free
speech.


Warner Bothers has been emailing children and adolescents with "fan sites"
pertaining to the Harry Potter books, threatening these young persons with
legal action on the basis of trademark infringement.

Young persons involved in the Harry Potter fan movement are calling for a
boycott of the Warner Brothers Harry Potter movie, and all merchandise related
to the Warners Brothers film.
