DMCA Follow-up copyright infringement (READ THE DESCRIPTION)

Back



I wrote to This I believe and asked them for permission to do a video reciting the essay and also asked them about the validity of the email that Renetto spoke about. They did contact him, so he was not lying about that part of it. So all he had to do was get permission, not monetize it, and none of this would have happened. Email from this I believe: Dear Ms. Mack, To answer your question about whether we give consent to recite any This I Believe essay, the answer is: Yes, with our permission and proper copyright attribution. Mr. Robinett, the man you refer to in your email, did not recite Ms. Allen's essay with her permission or our permission. If you would like to post a vlog that includes any portion or the entirety of Ms. Allen's essay, we simply require that you include the following text at the beginning of the video: "Leaving Identity Issues to Other Folks," Copyright ©2005 by Phyllis Allen. From the book This I Believe: The Personal Philosophies of Remarkable Men and Women, edited by Jay Allison and Dan Gediman. Copyright ©2006 by This I Believe, Inc. Reprinted by arrangement with This I Believe, Inc. In addition, we ask that you send us a link to the vlog when it is posted. If you agree with these terms, please write back to confirm such agreement. And thank you for writing. All the best, -Mary Jo ------ Mary Jo Gediman Outreach Director This I Believe, Inc.

If this breaking copyright thing goes on, we will just have to get rid of youtube. I hate these copyright rulz. I just tried to post a video, and it couldn't work. SIGH!

ROFL. Get rid youtube? No, you'll have to leave. Youtube is the #3 site Worldwide and the #2 site in the U.S. They pretty much control the industry. Who's #1? Google

I hope this doesnt upset you but i watch full movies on youtube all the time you just type in '_______(movie name) part 1' and 50% of the time you get a full movie.

Why would it upset me that you watch full movies on youtube, it does not matter to me what you or anyone else watches, I am only concerned when my copywritten material is involved, and all others should be concerned about theirs, if they are not, then that is their prerogative

Harmless infringements shouldn't be enough for the RIAA to ruin someones life. And no, the RIAA doesn't enforce infringement laws like this but they can sue you for making a profitless copy even if it's just for yourself. It is VERY unreasonable. These RIAA and MPAA jokers aren't losing any money. The law is stupid and should be void and nullified in every trial involving profitless data copying of otherwise "open" media thats meant to be accessible provided you pay. These laws are run amok.

baileykix: Everything you said in your comment is true except this statement "If he wasn't a partner there would be no infringement" He would still be in violation because he used the material without permission, but monetizing it made it worse. I know people here on youtube that have had DMCAs filed against them and they are not partners, video removed and a strike added to their account.

Some people make the issue seem much worse than it really is....once they are reported or caught in the act. It's hard not to abide by the law isn't it? They say don't but some of us do because they say don't. Just don't copy other peoples work without their permission and you won't have to worry about RIAA, DMCA, or any other organization that supports the law.

It's very easy to abide by the law. With the trends going on now it'll be much more easier to abide by the law. Usually when a market demands a certain something, the market gives the certain something, rather than refuse to change with the market. Why not now? You understand what I'm saying? I'm all in favor of proprietary work. I just don't believe in the punishment for harmless sharing/backup. However, I'll never understand someones support for more punishment and control in this Country.
