You posted Re: Re: Chilling...
You replied to ME.
If you did reply to who you claim... it would have read "Re: Re: Re: Chilling..."
Also the thread lines don't match up to your claim.


Even if you didn't reply to me.... which you clearly did. It still applies.

WE ARE ALL LIVING IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PAST.


Also the Hitler comment is not only relevant, it is far from stupid.
Comparing Obama to Hitler is classic butthurt right wing propaganda that is in no way accurate.
I even went on to explain that if you were to compare Hitler quotes to an American political party, it would be the Republicans that the quotes fit the most.
Fucking stupid to compare Republicans with Hitler too.



Moron is correct.

The exact same could be said of you ootb. You come in here with what appears to be a love/hate relation with Mike. You have consistently shown you don't read the articles before commenting, rarely read the comments to respond, rarely comment on topic, have no earthly idea what you rave of and can not support anything you say with reasonable references.

You sir, could be defined by a quote spoken of in reflection of George Bush. I give you that quote here...

Maybe next time you should put in two seconds of thought to see if your point is valid.

He never claims this is a DMCA notice, mostly because it isn't one. Sending a DMCA notice to the infringer would make no sense, since they're not covered by the safe harbors anyway. A DMCA notice actually says "under penalty of perjury", which he does not state in this email - and if he's not stating anything under penalty of perjury, then he's obviously not committing perjury. Additionally, he owns the copyright, and that's the only thing that is covered by the "under penalty of perjury" part of a DMCA notice anyway.

So... um, what was your point supposed to be, again?

"Since when does "fair use" require attribution, and even if did, how are you going to enforce attribution without the exact same copyright regimen?"

Indeed, fair use does not require attribution (although it would seem the polite thing to do.) Maybe he's claiming this isn't fair use. And if it is NOT fair use, then he'd have the right to set conditions like attribution.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130523/12283223188/petition-asks-obama-to-support-treaty-blind-rather-than-siding-with-hollywood.shtml#c60 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:54:17 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130523/12283223188/petition-asks-obama-to-support-treaty-blind-rather-than-siding-with-hollywood.shtml#c60 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130523/12283223188/petition-asks-obama-to-support-treaty-blind-rather-than-siding-with-hollywood.shtml#c45 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:52:15 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130523/12283223188/petition-asks-obama-to-support-treaty-blind-rather-than-siding-with-hollywood.shtml#c45 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130524/10542823205/another-court-tells-prenda-to-pay-up-attorneys-fees.shtml#c145 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:51:39 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130524/10542823205/another-court-tells-prenda-to-pay-up-attorneys-fees.shtml#c145 Then go in for the removal of their jobs.

You would think being a lawyer (and not just some famous movie star) he would have had a little better understanding of how things were going to play out... Meaning his 'firm' was never going to show any profit from these efforts, all the funds will be in some offshore shell companies.

Consumers pay $1,000,000 in 'settlements'
Prenda - charges $2,000,000 in processing and handling fees
Shell companies - pocket $1,000,000 in cash and $2,000,000 in processing and handling fees.
