and you are also avoiding the question.
And btw. you posted pictures and wrote that:
Disclaimer: I just found these pictures and gifs on the internet. I didn't make them, I don't own any rights to them, I just downloaded them and decided to share them with you.
So you found the work of other ppl and thought you have to post them to earn money through it? Well I would say that is sth. that is against the law. ;-)
So you are talking about unity of mankind but you are selling the work of other ppl to earn money ... good job man XD
@dera123 if monetizing a social network share of a meme was against the law, then Zuckerberg would be in a lot of trouble. AT BEST if a copyright holder had an issue, it would be copyright infringement and thats at best. This however is not the same thing as plagiarism.
Plagiarism means, to take something that is not yours, and claim that you made it.
Also, if sharing a social media post was against the law, then Facebook users are accomplices to Mark Zuckerberg by default of facilitating the shared content.
So, I've not plagiarized anything. So to claim I have, is a false accusation.
Now lets move onto the next allegation, fraud.
How exactly is sharing my own or any other content, fraud? It is clearly not.
Lastly, scams.
How have I scammed anyone? Did I accept something from people with a promise of a return that was never issued? No.
So AT BEST (but probably not) I MIGHT HAVE (but again, probably not) inadvertently infringed a copyright which is a civil matter, not a federal matter.
So again I will ask:
What did I plagiarize?
What is my fraud?
What scam am I supposedly running?
And how is making more than 7 posts a day "spam" when there is no defined posting limits at all?
Did I say that your copyright infringements are a federal matter? I just wrote about violating copyrights and you admitted it what else is there to say?
If ppl are stealing the work of others and are also admitting it why shouldn't that be flagged? Is posting the work of others without even giving them credit the right way for a united mankind?
I mean come on, this here is just written because a plagiarizer got banned because he copied the work of others. And is that ok for you from the point of view of a united mankind? An individual who uses the work of another person to earn money without asking for permission or even giving credit? If stealing from others is ok for you then I don' want to be part that
And you are still avoiding the question from @themarkymark: which crime would you report?
@dera123 also if you want to take it to where you took it and act as if I'm being hypocritical, lets turn this back around then in the spirit of fairness:
@themarkymark is sharing content he did not make, and not just images. He does not own the copyright for the video games he is playing and yet, he is streaming all of those image frames per second of copyrighted game content that he does not own, and earning money from it on Steemit.
Sure like all the lets players on twitch, because the developers of the games are ok with it, damn they are even promoting it by sending the games earlier to them
@themarkymark is no more or less a scammer, spammer or plagorizer than I -- in regards to fair use posting of content on monetized platforms. Milking the system with his bot however, might be another matter. I'm no legal professional and not going to claim to be. But I love asking lots of questions. Especially to people who have answers for me. Its how I learn.
There are only a few game developers and publishers which are not ok with ppl streaming their games, like nintendo for example and they have their own ppl showing streams.
@dera123 I agree and thats exactly my point. No copyright holders care if people make memes, either. Happens all the time and how many of them complain? None. There are memes floating all around Facebook and if copyright holders took issue with it, could they submit a DMCA takedown? Of course they could. Could they demand that Facebook outlaw fair use memes? Of course they could. But do they? No. You know why? Because memes fall under the category of COMMENTARY which is LEGAL.
So I've done nothing more or less "wrong" than @themarkymark
I also upload both original content and memes to my deviantART account. No one ever gets DMCA takedowns about memes and yes they do have a DMCA system and yes deviantART takes copyright infringement VERY SERIOUSLY. They also take FAIR USE very seriously, as well.
So my point was simply that though you made a creative attempt to twist the context, it failed. So nice try. I applaud your efforts. And feel free to check out my profile sometime if you wish: https://paradigm-shifting.deviantart.com
@themarkymark also tried to tell me that my own deviantART profile "belongs to some other person" and that I "stole from it".
I swear some people just aren't happy unless they just aren't happy. :)
All of this as been quite entertaining and stimulating for me. Looking forward to discovering what the conclusion to all of this is going to be. I am quite fascinated. Especially when it comes to narcissism. Such a simultaneously disturbing and intriguing aspect of humanity.
How should themarkymark know that it's your deviantart page? There are so many ppl stealing from all possible sources. Put sth on deviantart that states that it's yours bc your names here and there aren't the same.
And most comments are for michaellamden68 who isn't just using some memes for fun or sth. he posts porn pictures and states that they are not his and also uses bots to upvote them and that is for sure against the TOS of some of these bots.
One big problem on Steem is that it's all mostly based on online written words and because of that there are a lot of misunderstandings.
For example, I don't think that you are a fan of ppl stealing the work of others and it's the same for @themarkymark who blacklists many of these ppl. Both of you want to have a nice and peacefull community here (at least I hope so haha) but still there was a misunderstanding and bam here we are.
and you are also avoiding the question.
