Right, but who's to stop them from claiming he stole it in a blog?
My point was that by screaming no one is going to win.
I think it's extremely dangerous to make public claims about someone as they can just as easily do the same about you. They have no reputation to lose, so it'd be nothing for them to attack him back, he's got everything to lose (his name is exposed, etc.).
I wouldn't take the risk. You'd be making yourself extremely vulnerable.
Most lawyers will give free consultation, anyway. And writing a letter stating you have a lawyer would only make sense.
Good point about proving the copyright, too. If it did escalate to a verbal/blog war, it's basically just gonna be one persons word against an organization's word (numbers win).
