Kottke, Ken Jennings and Sony

It's pretty disturbing what's happening to Jason Kottke. Sony's lawyers clearly are missing the whole point and are abusing their rights to sue. While I understand their desire to protect Sony's copyrights it seems a bit short-sighted to take this particular tack. I stopped watching Jeopardy a few years ago (I used to be a huge fan), but because of Kottke's posts about Ken Jennings I started watching it again. It was Kottke who got me interested in watching again, not Sony's marketing or advertising of the show.
