Copyright violations? Has anyone received a bogus charge for loading up porn without permission? Is so, how do you fight it? | |

It all depends on how you got the material and what you're doing with it. If you "hacked" into a site and they have proof then you're fucked and will probably have to pay a heafty fine, this also applies if you're posting the copyrighted material without their permission. If you got a user name and password from one of the many forums out there then they can't do shit and you're in the clear - unless you're posting the material without permission or sharing the photos/videos on limewire or similar sites. I don't know if anybody remembers UCgalleries and all them pay site pictorials they posted all over for free? Well, them guys got royally fucked in the ass and now owe millions in fines for copyright violations so whatever you do don't upload copyrighted material to ANY website without permission, they're very touchy about that sort of thing and I'd be to if I ran a pay site. 6 pack bitches, deal with it Edited on Dec 22, 2010, 02:26pm | |

A group of lawyers in DC has filed 16,000 lawsuits against people whom they accuse of having downloaded movies illegally. They ask for $1,500 as a settlement, or you can fight them and they'll sue you for $150,000. Most have paid since the cost to prove their innocence (if they were innocent) would be higher. Now there is a class action suit against them claiming that they are not interested in copyright, but merely in scaring people to settle. I learned all this in a segment in NPR's On The Media (http://www.onthemedia.org/transcripts/2010/12/03/05). It ends saying that now, groups of lawyers are suing illegal porn downloaders with similar tactics. | |

This sounds more like a scam than anything else. The only legitimate method of cracking down on illegal downloaders and getting money out of them is to get served with legal papers or get a nasty-ass letter from a law firm representing a porn provider. Typically ISP's won't just turn over names of people who access illegal download sites without having subpoena's issued. There's a lot of work, time and money involved in the whole process so getting some computer pop-up that threatens to take your ass down is just a scam. Not really sure what to do when you see those things (I have never come across one but then I just download from paysites). | |

There is one webmaster using this as a poor means of a retirement plan. The suit is real and its not as expensive as you might think since the lawyer is doing it on a percentage base of revenue. | |

I think we need more information here to know exactly what's being asked and what the exact situation is. | |
