The way I see it is, attorneys like Cambria and Larry Walters and Greg Piccionelli are the ones who are out there fighting on our behalf, and they don't have the time to notify the industry of every meeting they intend to take, especially given the potential for thousands of webmasters and industry players to bombard them with emails and requests and suggestions. In situations like this, attorneys don't have the time to get the industry's input first -- nor should they be expected to. It's enough that they are the ones out there on the front lines fighting on our behalf. They have our best intentions at heart. They have to. If we go out of business, so do they. And unless you're employing Cambria's (or one of the other guys' services), you're expecting a lot of something for nothing.

These guys know how the industry works, Lee. They make their money solely off defending us. They know what our issues are. They don't need to post a TGP gallery to know what a TGP gallery is and what is potentially illegal about it or what wembasters have to do in order to keep the content on TGP galleries legal.

I agree with DonMike that there's not an awful lot of information in that story, but to expect these guys to make a huge announcement and solicit our opinions before every meeting they take is really a rather ludicrous expectation.
