Barney (and his lawyers) have backed down from an alleged copyright issue, according to the EFF. Stuart Frankel, a website publisher, made a parody involving Barney, which lawyers said was a copyright violation. The EFF maintains though that it was non-infringing, protected use. The Barney lawyers have withdrawn their legal threats and agreed to compensate Mr. Frankel for the cost of defending himself.
