> [the troll] asked for [EFF's] "Stupid Patent of the Month" post to be taken down. Remarkably, an Australian judge agreed

Does anyone know why the judge agreed? I'm all for taking down trolls, but if a judge agreed, maybe there's more to the story than meets the eye.

I think it was a default ruling. People are speculating that the EFF didn't bother with defending on this one, since it was in Australian courts.
