Didn't mean to come across as upset - I'm not.

I would say that Nakamoto already received nearly 50 BTC (currently around $20k) from the community. https://blockchain.info/address/1Dorian4RoXcnBv9hnQ4Y2C1an6N...

Now his lawyer, who could just as well work for a settlement with Newsweek which would pay for the expenses, seems to me to simply be taking advantage of the (apparently quite generous) BTC crowd...
