<p>Scorching the landscape with C&#038;Ds rarely <a href="http://games.slashdot.org/story/11/08/22/1959255/Atari-Targets-Retro-Community-With-Cease-amp-Desist" target="_blank">wins you friends</a> and probably <a href="http://blogs.houstonpress.com/eating/2011/09/dublin_dr_pepper_asks_fans_to.php " target="_blank">hurts your brand image</a> in the long run. Now that social media is maturing, we might even be able to measure how bad legal eagle actions affect the buzz around your organization.
