California I can't have a discussion here without your control freak moderators wanting to feel powerful and important by exerting too much control over people, and closing a thread (which I just opened), with no reason given. Contrary to a comment that was made, lying to a manager about...

That's not true. My manager told me what she said. I never approached her in any way, let alone in a hostile way. I directed my manager to the evidence contained in the video camera footage outside. It won't show that I ever approached her. I stood in side my apartment and opened the door, but...

I also want to state something that has always bothered me about this site. I believe this is the site. I once posted a video on the penalty of perjury, but it was removed, not for any violation, but because the Moderator subjectively thought that the participants on the thread were already...

What is the name of your state?California I reported my apartment neighbor to the manager for apparent drug activity, and she retaliated, claiming that I approached her in a hostile way. This never happened. I asked a visitor if drugs were being distributed. My actual neighbor was not home when...

Thanks for all your responses. I have great news. Due to numerous TOS violations, Google totally removed the bloggers account. It appears that this matter is resolved. Everything has been deleted.

I appreciate all the comments. From what I read online, parody is protected by fair use, but the person in question claims that it's satire. I think there are limitations with fair use. Libelous statements in the mutilated photos and severely altering them in order to make the original copyright...

That comment appears contradictory, because you said audio visual works are protected by copyright, then said it might constitute fair use. Why isn't this a contradiction? If something is copyrighted, how can it fall under fair use?

That's right and supports my own research. I don't understand why Google doesn't allow people to file a counter response to a counter notice, but instead force us to spend tons of money in court. I could have argued the point you made, and the fact that there are dozens of severely mutilated and...

That's an option I had not considered. For purposes of clarification, the images were taken from public videos. He took screenshots, then totally disfigured them, trying to make me look crazy. I don't know if video images are copyrighted. Google doesn't make sense to me. They removed the videos...

I am working on getting a lawyer, but I wanted to see if anyone here could also help. I've learned a few things already on this thread.

A lawyer told me that people can sue for anything in small claims court, but I would sue on the basis of public defamation, libel and harassment. I am now working on finding an intellectual property lawyer. It's wrong that total strangers can take a persons picture, totally mutilate it, and get...

Thanks. Section 512 of Title 17 gives me the right to file in court within 14 days, but it doesn't clarify if Small Claims Court is allowable. It just says "court." Do you know if I supply documentation showing that I have filed in Small Claims Court that this would be adequate?

Thanks. I thought public images were automatically copyrighted. I no longer have access to the original images, and this is a problem. Do you think a Small Claims lawsuit for slander or harassment is an option?

What is the name of your state? California Hello, I am new here and hope someone can help me. A person on Google Blogger has taken my photos from other social media and posted them on his blog pages, without my permission. The problem is that he has distorted them and attributed statements to...
