Not going to share Jed? I think the forum should be informed of how you came across this link, which causes aggressive malware like activity. And even more so, why you posted it anyway?
I saw the same link, and followed it, and noticed nothing untoward, before Jed posted here. Looks like someone else passed this on to Jed.
Given this context, it is extremely unlikely that Jed was informed by the source of the malware, which probably was not specific about that image, if there is malware (there are false reports of such, caused participarly by viruses or installed malware browser extensions, etc.) "This forum" is not defined by IHFB.
A Google search for "16423-plants-in-japan-35-pics.html" turned up a link to E-Catworld.com. ECW is not structured to allow easily finding individual posts buried in long discussions. I did go down through many pages of "more comment," and did not find it. The Google cache of the hit was dated Aug 17, 2016 22:46:48 GMT. Jed posted here August 16th. However, That ECW discussion started August 6.
Anyone who took the image as presented in Rossi v. Darden and used Google image search would have found that image on acidcow. There is no mystery here.
The business card was a cheesy home-made card, obviously. It actually demonstrates almost nothing, because JM Products is acknowledged as a dummy company, i.e., even if it is real, even if there really was a Bass, as an engineer for JMP, this would not be the real employer, probably, but a "temporary assignment," and the card might be made for that. Why bother with a substantial printing?
