If DP did not post your so-called info, then it is very likely this will not go anywhere. so unless you are prepared to pay $200/hr - then you are just foaming at the mouth. I was in an accident, and I could not even get an atty to take the case, and I was the victim...and you think some atty is going to step up to the plate in your case? If he is unethcial then he would, but no decent atty would bother with this. Forums are pretty much protected from 2nd, 3rd party posters... I see water coming from the oP eyes, just wipe your eyes and move on with life, i suspect you will not get out of the starting gate with this. I doubt the legal sec will not even return your calls.... content is taken daily from websites all day long... so how many lawsuits do you see as a result of this? be realistic...and go tell your mum to whip you up some hot-soup. PS. Dp has more then you think, they could just setup a legal fund link on this forum, and they will probably get money all day long... Where are the legal funds from the oP coming from? How do you plan on keeping this going? You think atty's will work for you for free on a shamble case like this? no way, they will want their money up front... You are not O' J....
I'm pretty sure that's what this site is supposed to be: http://www.badisse.com/ It's just not very well SEO'd.
But he is mentioning the same thing he wants removed? I guess he really doesn't want a job. This whole thing is a joke right? http://www.badisse.com/?p=25
What is happening here is he's standing up for his legal rights as a content producer. He can prove to be the original author and he's asking the owner of the site to remove the content under provisions enacted in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Up until the owner received notice of this infringement and was asked to remove it he fell under the Safe Harbor provisions of the DMCA, now that he's been contacted, even if it's about a simple post, legal action can be taken as the site owner is violating the DMCA. The charges that can be taken are (1) 1 Count of Accessory to person(s) committing copyright infringement, and (2) Failure to remove said copyright articles from distribution when asked by the content producer. It is understandable that just because he posted it on his own website even though he wants it taken down from others, that he can still ask to have it removed. It is legally his. Wake up and realize what the underlying message here is, if you believe he doesn't deserve his rights, in truth you'd feel the same if someone stole something of yours. He's protecting his rights, the moment you stop protecting them you give the government and other people the right to walk all over you.
Cool, I hope this forum destroys your entire life and you end up on the street is will be 1 more victory for DigitalPoint forums, and thanks for the info on your case and how it is screwing you, because now since you have shown your true idiocracy I will pursue this and make sure word gets out on several sites other then digitalpoint when someone attempts to hire you and they are smart enough to use google they will throw your application/resume in the trash soon after reading. I solute the user who created that thread, thanks for exposing another low life that should not be employed by any reputable company.
Welcome to the forum, so glad you managed to find this thread. You sound like the same kind of moron who made the OP. Thanks for the laugh Mehmet. My favorite part is that you posted a thread with your name complaining that your name shows up on dp. I still think this is an act, real people ain't this stupid.
I thought of you this morning as I read the paper http://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/news/article.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10666925
Haha I would have to say the same to you, I laugh at those who have had their lives destroyed because of the internet it is 100% the fault of victim for it leading to such circumstances.
I read that as well - but didn't make the connection. I guess there is always that way out. It is a little sad because he runs Google and really means it.
its like anything: just because we have the technology it doesn't mean we should use it. Human cloning is the extreme example. Search engines started life as benign helpers back when you had to be fairly determined to get information online. Now my daughter can facebook from her ipod in the living room and I have no idea if she's playing games or telling the world how she feels about stuff. Kids have a steep learning curve at an age when they can't appreciate the ramifications. I remember as a kid my Mum talking (ranting?) about getting a bad reputation and thinking it was totally ridiculous - 20 years on I started to see things differently. 30 years on, the rules have changed but I can see where she was coming from at the time. I suspect it may take the OP 30 years to fully understand this situation.
I bet this dude just wants to get his site traffic... and what if you do sue them and they just remove the post? hah takes them 2 seconds to do while it will take you hours upon hours at $200 a hour. I have some advice, go run in front of a car and sue them for hitting you... (haha dont take that to literal)
No. What I am is someone who understands that freedom is something you have to fight for, the moment you stop fighting you let other people take you over. Unlike you I actually know my rights and I am willing to fight for them. The OP in this thread is just asking for a simple thread to get deleted and everyone bashes for it, it wouldn't have even come down to this if they'd just removed it to begin with. Legally the owner is required to and is liable for the content should he not, the website is located in the United States. I'm surprised the OP hasn't called his server host and had the site shut down for failure to comply, it's within his legal rights. All he has to do is send a DMCA notice to the server host with a link to the post he wants removed and the site owner can either comply, be shut down, or counter the notice.
It is very simple. If he wants it removed, he just needs to get a court order. Considering he is bitching about this for a year and hasn't bothered yet, we can assume he is just an attention whore and has no real desire to solve his alleged problem. This is not fight for freedom, this is watching some moron waste his time posting his lawsuits all over the Internet and then crying like a bitch when people noticed and think he is a fool.
No need for all this hooha - get the court order and it will be removed. You seem to know your way around the courts so it shouldn't be a big problem for you getting it. Best of luck.
