Hasbro Using DMCA on Facebook Game Apps

Boggle Addict writes "Rather than participating in the online gaming market, Hasbro is suppressing it with litigation. Scrabulous, a Scrabble imitation, is already fighting to prevent being shut down. Today, Hasbro sent out DMCA notices to other apps on Facebook, including Bogglific, a Boggle imitation. Copyright law has has always held very limited protections for games. This may be opening a can of worms for Hasbro.

    Well, step aside my friend
    I've been doing it for years
    I say, sit on down, open your eyes
    And open up your ears

    Say
    Put a tree in your butt
    Put a bumblebee in your butt
    Put a clock in your butt
    Put a big rock in your butt
    Put some fleas in your butt
    Start to sneeze in your butt
    Put a tin can in your butt
    Put a little tiny man in your butt
    Put a light in your butt
    Make it bright in your butt
    Put a TV in your butt
    Put me in your butt
    Everybody say

    I, hey, that's, man, I ain't putting no trees in nobody's butt,
    no bees in nobody's butt, putting nothing--
    You must be out your mind, man,
    y'all get paid for doing this?
    Cause y'all gotta get some kind of money
    Cause this don't sound like the kind of--
    I'd rather golf, to be perfectly honest,
    than put somethin in somebody's butt
    to be truthful

    Well step aside my friend and let me
    show you how you do it
    When big bad E just rock rock to it

    Put a metal case in your butt
    Put her face in your butt
    Put a frown in your butt
    Put a clown in your butt
    Sit on down in your butt
    Put a boat in your butt
    Put a moat in your butt
    Put a mink coat in your butt
    Put everything in your butt
    Just start to sing about your butt
    Feels real good
