Copyright Infringer Tries To Shut Down Reporting On Her Infringement

Posted by timothy on from the would-you-like-some-goose-with-your-gander? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Further to the previous story on Slashdot where attorney Candice Schwager threw threats to sue a photographer who reported a DMCA violation against her for infringing use of his photography: Candice has now made a DMCA threat of her own against Petapixel, a photography site that reported on her infringement. The kicker? She's sent the DMCA notice an apparent six times not to Petapixel's registrar or their hosting service, but to Godaddy, her own registrar."

    I'm not going to have another George W. Bush type president on my conscience,

    Then WTF are you doing voting for Obama?

    http://nothingchanged.org/

    This is my tally on 22 highly important issues:
    Worse than Bush: 8
    Same as Bush: 9
    Better than Bush: 2
    Worse than Bush, but not Obama's fault: 1
    Better than Bush, but not Obama's accomplishment: 1
    Can't make a fair comparison: 1

    What changed under Obama? Nothing Good
  3. Lesser of two evils? Where? by King_TJ · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    The problem I see is we've got 2 evils... and no clear "lesser" to be found!

    Obama is the evil we already know, except likely to be amplified by the fact he'll be a lame duck if re-elected. (He can go full speed ahead with those "Green initiatives" he wanted so badly, but backed off on a bit, etc.)

    Romney is the evil we don't yet know (though we're getting an increasingly good idea of just how evil the guy will be in the office of president).

    Screw it .... I'm supporting Ron Paul until the end, just because the man offered people a pretty compelling alternative to the status-quo duopoly they're trying to shove down our collective throats. If I have to write his name in on a ballot, so be it.

    I honestly don't consider you "part of the problem" if you truly think you're voting for a lesser of the 2 evils expected to be among the only 2 electable people for the position. The problem is the Republicrats who have a monopoly on power/money/influence and are just as concerned with hanging onto that control, long-term, as they are getting one of their factions elected over the other one in a given election.

    But as I say ... This is one of those cases where I'm finding it really difficult to say Obama is "less of an evil" than Romney would be, or vice-versa. Both of them will "stay the course" of taking us right off the cliff.
