Huh? If it causes the video giving bad reviews of their product to be taken down, the C&D letter does a lot of good for Palo Alto. Even if the review is accurate, if Palo Alto can force the review to go away it is a good day's work for that lawyer.

Unless you trigger the Streisand Effect.

But it looks like more people have upvoted this post than actually watched the video, so maybe that isn’t going to happen.

While the Streisand Effect might be valid, I am curious if lawyers give a crap about it. If more people start posting the same content and/or similar but equally aggravating content, then that's just more work for the lawyers to do. More billable hours. They'll just have an intern or do it.
