The Tabberone Chronicles
Do you know who Tabberone is? You may have heard of her because she has "claimed" to won so many copyright lawsuits
against big companies, but do you REALLY know her? Well, you will. |

Tabberone Chronicles Part I
|
|
Somewhere in Colorado, a
retiree with
bad hair and no fashion sense sits on her computer, listing discounted
fabric she purchased from
Walmart on ebay. When all of a sudden, ebay shuts down a few of her auctions due
to "copyright infringement".
I'm sure we are all familar with this term by now. Copyright and Infringing
go hand in hand when the name Tabberone comes to mind, just like
dentures and depends as well.
Tabberone( aka Karen Dudnikov)
and her
common law husband start taking companies to court claiming
they have the right to re-sell these fabrics and many items they have made using the licensed fabrics, claiming
"Fair use of trademarks in conjunction with selling or promoting the sale of goods made by the mark holder is acceptable".
Yadda, yadda..she goes on and on, on many pages of her website.
She has won...er should I say
"claimed" to have won many of her cases.
Well, I did a bit of searching these cases and
spoke to a few people and the results are astonishing.
It seems that when "Tabberone" talks about these cases on her website, they are
one-sided.
In fact, everything she has on her website is
one-sided and when you contact her for any reason
to rebuttal, she twists
your words around, posts your "emails" for the world to see without YOUR knowledge or consent...claiming "fair use" and
freedom of speech...hmm...We will tackle that one later.
There have been
NUMEROUS instances where some of the representatives have contacted "Tabberone",
but she leaves that part out.
In many of her cases, the companies didn't have time for petty lawsuits from someone who would probably have a stroke before
the trial was over anyway and just let it go...it was a waste of time.
Reputable people have gone to her for advice, and trust me, have only suffered humiliation and 75% of them have
lost their cases, money and valuable time. I have sent them an open invitation
to comment here.
What is my problem with Tabberone? You can read everything in part 3.
Stay tuned!
