Payam Tamiz may not be a name very well known in Silicon Valley, or indeed much beyond his small hometown of Margate, a dilapidated coastal resort not far from London. But the wannabe politician has discovered a way to get the giants of the internet to sit up and take notice.
This week Tamiz made wave with an appeal against Google (s GOOG), which he was trying to sue over defamatory comments about him made on Blogger posting.
Christ, some man from my hometown trying to single handedly take down Google...good luck mate.
