which bit is the copyright infringement?

Is it copying and pasting from her website and quoting it here?

Just let me know if you want me to assassinate anyone.

Just leave it. Screw good will gestures. It's not like she's important.

Sure sure we are all special snowflakes.. But self appointed grandiosity and demanding is bullshit. Unless I do it.
Tell her to get her fans to vote in our poll. A grand total of 0.

I think the linkup is a great idea, that way we comply with what she wants and I'm sure the DIF mods would appreciate it, we should also make an honorary user account for her

I vote we make her a facilitator as reward for her diligence.

I've had a good look at her blog posts and it does not carry a copyright notice

There has to be a copyright statement along the lines of

for a copyright violation to occur.

This blog does not have one so I don't think this site is doing anything wrong.

OI you know that we will all support you whatever you you decide to do......it's you that has ultimate responsibility after all

All seems a bit weird

And $50 a phone call ffs.... am all for self employment and making a living but that is taking the piss

We could adopt her as a cause.

I mean she obviously reads SZ and is probably dying to join but is either shy or her other gig might be a right restrictive, insecure lot who don't like their users, staff or volunteers mixing with the 'others'.

blog content is automatically covered by copyright as soon as it is published even if you do not add that c thing

We. Will NOT!! Negotiate. With Terrorists!!!

Ultimately, what can she do? It's a few words from a blurb on a blog. If fair use can be claimed, then fuck her. I agree with Bat, she's only doing this to be a bitch. AND to show this forum that the admin of the DIF have the kind of reach to silence free & open discussion on "rival" forums. They don't. And if it were me I wouldn't give it to them. NEVER give in to the demands of a terrorist.

Talk about grandiose, fuck you ufochick, if people could sue for reposting part of a blog there be carnage! She is chancing her arm because of what this forum represents to Sean and the dif crew, i say post more of her lame site

I don't think it is .

I'm happy to be wrong though, can you point me in the right direction to verify this.

Genuinely interested to find what is what

Let us not forget half the content on the DIF is taken from other site with a large portion fro the daily mail ffs

I withdraw my earlier vote. Thor and feather ftw
i think such piss takes deserve the piss taking out of them. I think the precedent to set is that the sz will mercilessly take the piss out of piss takers. It's a fractal piss take opportunity.

Do as Ufosheep demands replace the post with that awesome banner and issue thor's statement.
That's my vote now. Unless hugo offers to make a hat porn vid to replace the norty norty nasty clinical lunatic c+p.

Thank you Thoreau

But this

By law, when something is written, drawn, photographed, etc., its copyright is automatically owned by the author. In other words, a copyright exists at the moment the work is created.



Is simply not true

OK...I know I'm going to get shit for this...I charge £50 an hour, am self employed...but I don't do phone calls!

Dubs amalgamation of ideas is getting my juices flowing.

Respect her wishes, but with icing and a cherry on the top and thereafter generally rip the piss royally.

I concur with Dawney on that one.
I can only say from a book publishing aspect. I have a book I have been working on for many years. When the first draught was complete I took several copies to the post office and got them date stamped over the seal and posted back to myself, so that say my laptop, hard copies etc ever fell into the wrong hands and my work got published or parts thereof as somebody elses, I would have sealed copies to present to a judge. I know things have moved on since then...but that principle still applies in book/mag etc publishing.

I have been very cautious, and still haven't done it, about uploading(?) my photos on to things like photobucket so I can get them on here, because I have read somewhere that as soon as I do that, private or not, they become the sites property not mine...I think it was something to do with that 'cloud' thing to store all your stuff on.

Let her waste her money serving a writ then remove the post, fuck them all
