You’ve heard about that crazy lawyer guy who is suing the creator of the popular website The Oatmeal. Don’t fret for good sir creator. He is rolling deep, with a posse of serious fortifications.

Boing Boing:

The Electronic Frontier Foundation has joined the defense team for Matthew Inman, creator of The Oatmeal, who is one of the parties named to a bizarre lawsuit by Charles Carreon, who recently threatened Inman with a $20,000 demand on behalf of the website Funnyjunk, then sued Inman (and a host of others) when he made fun of the threat.

“This lawsuit is a blatant attempt to abuse the legal process to punish a critic,” said EFF Intellectual Property Director Corynne McSherry. “We’re very glad to help Mr. Inman fight back.”

Awesome.
