Subject: Re: Urgent Removal Request – Defamation, GDPR Violations & Unlawful Content Targeting Nicholas Lemonias Date: 22 November 2025

You contacted us on August 30, 2025 with the same request. I replied to you:

    Please cite exactly what is -factually incorrect- in the content
    published in the link cited. Based on our legal counsel's
    evaluation, this material does not meet the criteria for
    defamation.

Quit your bullshit and answer the fucking question, or as our dear deceased grandfather Cancer Omega would say... "go pound sand".

Yours most faithfully,

Subject: Re: Final Notice – Failure to Provide Lawful Grounds & Continued Unprofessional Conduct

Mr. Muhammad Ashiq or Muhammad Kareem or Farhan Khan,

First, you have used three different "real names" in two emails, from 
two addresses over the last three months. Pick a single fake name and 
stick with it, yeah?

Second, you have no claimed to be Lemonias' *legal representative*. With 
that, please provide your real name, firm's name, phone number, and 
address so that I can share that with my lawyer. That is how it is done 
if you are going to threaten legal action; you ask for my lawyer's 
information at some point. In the future, please only correspond with 
me from your firm's address, not some random silly Gmail address.

Third, you don't get to make demands on how I correspond with you. 
Don't like it? Then fuck off and stop emailing me, then go look up the 
1st fucking Amendment and what it means. Everything that has been posted 
is fully within the bounds of U.S. law and is protected speech. If you 
want me to be civil, then you act like a professional first, because so 
far you certainly do not come across as one.

Fourth, you apparently haven't read up on defamation law either because 
none of my content meets the criteria for that either. I'd spoil it for 
you and my readers but hey, you're the "legal representative" so you must 
certainly know defamation law, right? Right?! Everything I have published 
I firmly believe is true, and have presented enough evidence to back my 
claims to the best of my knowledge and ability. That is a fact.

Fifth, there is no right to privacy when you email me. Any implied right 
is a fantasy as I am not bound by law to keep that email private. I am 
well within my rights to publish it online, just as I have published your 
mails online too. Any "legal representative" should know this.

Sixth, misuse of identity? That is beyond a leap and a stretch and after 
that, no need for me to read the rest of your drivel. You aren't citing 
actual laws or legal precedent here, just what one asshat desperately wants.

Seventh, you apparently don't know technical matters very well and don't 
understand blogging, at all. Consider your claim that I have "repeat[ed] 
and amplifies these defamatory statements across multiple posts, tags, 
and archives citing https://jericho.blog/tag/nicholas-lemonias/. Your 
complaint this time, about -one- blog that originally appeared on one 
domain, was copied to my personal blog verbatim, and appears there under 
one tag. It is -one- blog, a single piece of content, in -two- places. 
Implying I have repeatedly amplified it is a gross mischaracterization 
of what has happened.

Eighth, you won't actually refute any specific piece of what I wrote which 
is all of two paragraphs containing 369 words. The time you took to spew 
your mail three months ago, this morning, and now this evening could have 
been better spent sending what you believe to be false or defamatory .. you 
know, IN GOOD FAITH, which you claim your mail is in. I firmly do not 
believe your mail is in good faith. I personally believe you are not 
a legal representative. I suspect you are Nicholas himself. I can't prove 
that but I am entitled to my opinion on the matter, and I am entitled to
share that opinion with the world. And the world is entitled to read what 
Lemonias has previously done and wrote versus what I have done and wrote, 
and make up their minds.

Ninth, you acknowledge receiving my prior email on August 30, and claim I 
did not "address GDPR compliance". Please cite which part of the GDPR I am 
violating, what personal data of Lemonias I have published (as name and 
email address are not protected in this case), and why you think I fall 
under European law.

Tenth, my website does not host illegal content. It does host your silly 
little opinion though. Back in 2014, your client who appears to be an idiot 
claimed he was going to call the Denver Police Department on me. If he did, 
then they found I did nothing wrong presumably, or he didn't and lied 
about it.

Eleventh, you claim "Clear notification of harm caused", yet your emails 
literally have provided no proof that harm has been caused. To be more 
pedantic, your emails haven't even been "clear" either as the claims you 
make are unfounded, you email from different addresses, use three 
different names, and come across to me as some random cunt who figured out 
Gmail. How's that for civility, wanker? I used jargon from your country 
out of politeness!

Twelfth, and final! You end saying that if I don't comply with your 
irrational, bad-faith demands, you will:

: Filing formal complaints with your hosting provider and upstream
: network services

Feel free! Before you do, two things you should note. 

1) You may want to look up the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DCMA), 
specifically Title II, Sec. 202, 512, which protects hosting providers.

2) Your client has already filed a bogus DMCA take-down request before, 
and it did not work. Doing it again will open you up to the penalties, 
not just him.

: Submitting GDPR violation reports to EU regulatory bodies

Feel free! The content is not hosted in Europe.

: Initiating legal proceedings for damages, injunctive relief, and 
: documented harm

Feel free! I don't think you understand what that will mean. Because I will 
fight such a bogus lawsuit, and I have the means to. Further, I will 
countersue in the United States if necessary and that means "discovery". 
Not sure your client wants to open that can of worms. Also, look up SLAPP 
suits, that would be in his immediate future. Then, it would be fun to 
let my journalist friends know what is going on and then you might have 
to look up the Streisand effect.

Oh, please bill Nicholas for all this research you are having to do on 
account of my emails.

: Lodging additional complaints regarding unlawful handling of personal data

Feel free! But... to who?

: Providing full documentation of your hostile and abusive email conduct 
: to authorities as evidence of bad-faith communication

Feel free! That isn't a thing, even in Europe I bet. You forget there is 
prior history here, from 2014 and a full email chain that is public. That 
includes his threats of a DMCA takedown, going to my local law enforcement 
to no avail, his demands for me to remove content without the apparent 
ability to cite a single thing that was wrong, and more.

Each time I receive the emails, from Nicholas or Muhammad or Farhan or 
whoever, I answer in good faith and ask for precisely what is factually 
incorrect. Each time I receive a lot of hand-waving and threats. That, to 
me, is definitely a bad-faith communication pattern from all of you.

So once again, put up or shut up. Explain what in that blog, the whopping 
369 words, is factually wrong. Do that for starters and we can move on to 
the next part of defamation and I will be happy to educate you there next.

If you'd like to prove you are actually a real lawyer, then perhaps I will 
be more civil. Otherwise, eat a bowl of dicks.

Yours most faithfully,
