Joshmn: Thanks for chiming in. If I change the title of the site to "Freelancer For Me" for example, will it be enough to win a case like this?

So.. am I missing something here?

You are a new startup. You are operating a closely related product to a large power player in the same business by choosing a nearly identical name. Now you are suggesting their data is so important to you that you are going to technically circumvent their block, potentially adding more legal liability, and use their service anyway? And calling them "assholes" in a public forum forum?

Does that seem at all sustainable to you?
