Great “in your face” letter to Mobster Cable from Mr. Denke. Good free advertising as well as long as this news makes the various website and blogs as it appears to be doing. I don’t how this will play out but it will be especially fun to follow as I suspect Mr. Denke is gonna lay a good old fashioned &$tch slappin’ on Mobster Cable.
My favorite quote from Mr. Denke’s reply below…
[i]I assume that Monster Cable International, Ltd., in Bermuda, listed on these patents, is an IP holding company and that Monster Cable’s principal US entity pays licensing fees to the Bermuda corporation in order to shift income out of the United States and thereby avoid paying United States federal income tax on those portions of its income; my request for these licensing agreements is specifically intended to include any licensing agreements, including those with closely related or sham entities, within or without the Monster Cable “family,” and without regard to whether those licensing agreements are sham transactions for tax shelter purposes only or whether they are bona fide arm’s-length transactions.[/i]
Which brings up a good point folks; don’t waste your hard earned cash on Mobster products. Go to Blue Jeans Cable or Monoprice for your cable needs.
