Ok this is to good, I am going to quote this directly from Mashable:

“A man currently being detained by immigration in Houston, TX has filed a lawsuit claiming Yahoo and Google stole their names from Tanzanian tribes. As luck would have it, the man is a descendant of both tribes - what are the odds?

The lawsuit states that Google was taken from the Gogo tribe, and Yahoo from the Yao tribe. The claim is asking for $10,000 be paid to each tribe member for the past three generations.

This suit has about zero chance of ever getting anywhere, especially since both of these companies have well known name origins, but it is still a silly waste of the Justice system’s time. With all of the odd names out there now for web companies, I am sure someone can find one that is remotely close to something they can sue over.” - Read the article at Mashable.com

I find this extremely ridiculous. Not only is this obviously not the case as to where these names came from, but the names don’t even fit correctly. Its like me getting sued by someone named Jan because my names Jason. I feel like punching this guy in the beard.
