District Court Rules in Favor of Pop-Up Ads

Judge Gerald Bruce Lee, of the US District Court, Eastern District of Virginia released a decision on September 5 that stated “Alas, we computer users must endure pop-up advertising,” in the case of U-Haul International, Inc., v. WhenU.com, Inc., et al., Civ. Act. No.03-1469-A. Partial summary judgment had already been granted on June 23 against U-Haul, who was seeking to bar pop-up ads that orginated from WhenU.com in what U-Haul claimed was a violation of their trademarks and copyright.
