Setting the Record Straight - This is the real SGW

[_thews]

Bilxia - my apologies because I did misinterpret the Oujia Board and for that, I do apologize.

Thanks, apology accepted, of course.

I'm alarmed to hear that you and your family received and may still be receiving bullying email or messages. Like liz, I am shocked that all that could emanate from Porter's stupid, and short lived posting of your Facebook photos (so short, I missed them and I was reading the thread at the time). However, given the recent discovery that you were being impersonated on this board, I have to conclude that there is at least one pot-stirrer, if not more, who seem to be getting their kicks from turning some juvenile joking into something much bigger and more serious.

Thank you for explaining your side and showing that you have a much more healthy attitude toward your writing than the douche waffle who was impersonating you.

SeattleGhostWriter, thanks for posting this.

I would like to commend Blixa for being classy. She stands in stark contrast to the men children PP, Buffalo, and Cam, all of whom are like school in summertime.

[_beastie]

Do you have any idea who impersonated you and why?

[_Redefined]

This is ludicrous! Porter doesn't Facebook people, he would not have facebooked you.

[_Polygamy-Porter]

When I had gone to associated content and posted how to have a non-exclusive content removed, someone had gone over to my Facebook and then informed me that the photo's were public. This was after Polygamy porter had sent me a friend request.

LIE.
I did not send a friend request to you. This is a bald face lie.

And who friended you? Hmmm??

You are a LIAR.

I found your images open to the public, and linked to them.

I did this to open the discussion as to who this smut writing defender of the church was and thereby attempt to understand how you could write smut(poorly written by the way) and defend the organization that would condemn you for publishing the smut. And probably tell you to get a real education before you attempt to pass yourself off as a writer.

I then went back over and put them back to private settings (for some reason, Facebook keeps changing and updating and you have to go back in and reset all your security information).

BS.

That should solve the claim to B.S. Right there.

However the images were acquired, they were acquired. The end result and what happened was unethical, illegal, and in violation of the laws. Whomever that took upon themselves to send my wife and I hate mail and then come here to pose as me is the one that needs to receive the verbal lashings. I have already apologized.

I honestly have no idea.

So you have apologized, but you still have not cleared up who actually owns copyright to your published/public photo. You or your brother the Photojournalist? If he has not assigned it to you, it is him and your DMCA notice is bogus.
Yep, you can own the copyright even after publication but you have shot yourself in the foot by failing to register within 90 days of publication and as such won't even be entitled to attorney fees if you are silly enough to try and pursue the matter.

Do some checking and figure out reality with copyright, it may well help you in the future.

And keep up the porn writing and maybe l-dsinc will use you as another 'reformed-porno-addicted-freak' on their speaking tours. That type of person is popular in the wards and stakes these days. The more depraved, the better as you can tell better stories about redemption if you were a real gutter rat...

Are you an Attorney who deals in copyright laws? If so, what yous your BAR Number, Business Address, etc. Because it sounds like you are claiming to offer Legal Advice and counsel here. If you are not, then it is your own opinion and interpretation.

Let me make this very clear to you Joseph:

I CONSULTED WITH MY ATTORNEY WHO IS WELL VERSE IN COPYRIGHT LAWS AND DMCA TAKE DOWNS. I followed his counsel. If you can't accept that explanation and keep claiming that I filed it falsely, then that is your issue and your problem not mine.

I have explained it to you in plain english. but since you are slow to understand, the me spell it out for you.

The photo was taken by my brother in law who is a professional photo journalist (had a photo published in Sports Illustrated, and works as a photographer for a minor league baseball team and various college sports teams). He also takes wedding photo's and family photos. I have permission to use the photo for Author Bio and Press releases and that is what the photo is exclusively used for. Therefore it is covered under copyright laws and is protected.

End of discussion my friend.
