I've read it (twice actually, since you don't use proper punctuation and misspell a lot). If you owned the rights to it I should be able to look up the rights within the copyright office. Which would prove that you own the rights to it.
They were doing their job.
You bitched about them doing their job.
You claim they go too far by taking your stuff down.
Shaggy rebutted that it is far easier for them to close everything rather than hunt and pick the few who actually have the rights and or permission from the creator which is very time consuming since it requires the creator to verify who has permission to their content.
Arizth pointed out that I was right and added on that Doujin themselves can/are an illegal representation of the work of somebody else.
You can argue that they are parodies and are protected but, that's not here or there.
You countered with some unrelated event where a douche used Youtube's report system to have a guy's original content taken down because he disagreed with it (not because it broke copyrights).
Shaggy Jebus drives the point I was trying to make home.
You whine about how your blog was taken down and how you feel wronged. Then mention the bullshit about emails which serve no purpose in the conversation about copyright infringement.
And here we are.
Limewire, torrenting,etc,etc are all illegal methods of "sharing" content. Trying to justify your actions by saying that other people were doing it doesn't make you any less guilty.
The point is: You posted stuff you don't have the legal rights (if you did you could provide the papers/information required to prove that you have the rights to that product or that you had written permission from the creator of that content to post it on your blog. If you did, then we could look it up through the copyright office records. You didn't and they took it down. They didn't overstep their bounds, they stayed within their legal rights. Maybe they should have just asked you to remove the content like they did with Jacob but, you were probably didn't own the server you had "your" stuff on so they just contacted the people who hosted your site and just took it down.
Where did you have your blog (the site address or the hosting site address)? How much content did you illegally post? Did you own the sever that it was hosted on like Jacob & fakku (as in you bought a server and physically own that server and not just renting space)? Regardless if your "words" were there. You posted either images, pictures, art, music, videos,etc,etc,etc that somebody else created and that is what got you into trouble.
Just be thankful you weren't hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit.
