>>77153793This has the energy of a pedantic teenager thumbing their nose at their parents like "erm, well you said no PC, so I'm using the laptop instead" and thinking they're smart.
Unfortunately for Kirsche, the law doesn't tend to look kindly on this kind of subversion of intent, since while in abstract, "attending" doesn't preclude "meeting & greeting", the existence of alternative roles "exhibitor"/"guest" at the con clearly contextually communicate that the rights/roles of a "attendee" is actually distinct to a "guest" holding a meet & greet. If she's unlucky enough that Offkai were to sue for false advertising or reputational damage since she's misselling herself as a Con event, while also communicating that she's being aided by "terrorists", she'd get rung out over this point.
Like, it might seem like an epic win but she's actually putting herself at exceptional legal risk here and for what?
(also on a non-legal dimension, it just smacks of sour grapes)
