This is a wonderful admission by Facebook. So any one of the millions of companies who have had their copyrights or trademarks infringed by fraudulent Chinese advertisers on Instagram and Facebook should now be given FULL access to all advertisers personal details on Facebook including the complete historic library of ads that have ever run on Facebook since, by their own argument, “You don’t know who to sue until you’ve got the Whois information,”


No. They’re arguing anyone with a registered trademark should have full access to everything, with no infringement required.

They’re also arguing a restriction to advertisers would be an undue burden.


I agree. I also think getting a judge to sign off on that would be unduly burdensome.
