Most of the western world has had falling fertility rates, it would also help explain the push for immigration in those countries, politicians are quietly worried about the stability of their population growth / consumption economies.

The MPAA would most likely go after supplier not the store, the MPAA would have to prove the store knew the products where duplicated/reproduced.

Anyone still not happy here should provide a detailed explanation on what they would do differently, instead of decrying the company.

Good luck collecting double revenues legal action required to enforce that clause would cost more than the revenue.

There is three actors in this, yours only has two, this is like is like the RIAA asking a record store to pay them the $10,000 they made from selling a record which turned out to not belong to the supplier, the store issued a recall refunde

Using DCMA is a good first step when trying to deal with these issues, posting an angry blog and defaming a company as being made explicitly to sell stolen content on twitter shouldn't be your first action. https://support.u

That doesnt talk about how the users who actually bought the content werent refunded though?

Can you link to this information, I am not saying your wrong but if true this is relevant to the discussion, because if they kept the money then that is the real thing we should be talking about, as this is highly questionable behavior.

Because udemy has money and are easier to go after, if rob was to go after the person who actually stole his content they might be insolvent or in a country is too expensive to go after them.

Sorry miss-read I guess it depends on if they continue to sell it after being notified in a manner that cant be abused, what else can we expect them to do?

Are you saying you dont think Amazon sells things that violate other peoples copyrights?
102.
by ps4fanboy 11y ago
I do not see any evidence to suggest they are profiting from it, wouldn't they be legally obligated to refund the users who bought the content once its taken down, since they would lose access? So in theory wouldn't udemy be losin

OK so now they ban all videos with water marks of companies what does that solve, people will just start cropping videos.

What steps?

Udemy has over 30,000 courses, how many videos and other course assets does that represent? What method are you suggesting they deploy to validate the person selling the course owns all the copyrights they need to sell it?

I couldnt tell from the tweets but did Udemy keep the money or did they refund the users once the content was taken down? If refunds are issued to users, it seems unreasonable for the author to claim that Udemy should be paying them 100% of

And this is all because ownership beyond "I made it I own it" is hidden in contracts which arent required to be public. People who expect third parties to have knowledge of private contracts are making unreasonable claims.

I agree, and the owner should assert his claim by submitting a DCMA takedown request, but the owner shouldnt complain that they had to do that in the first place, that is unreasonable.

If you look around, the main complaint with YouTube now is people making false claims of ownership now, this is the problem with validating the idea of "ownership" there is no registry its almost impossible to validate that someon

> Define "dangerous" Dangerous was a bad word choice, perhaps "unreasonable". > Listen mate, if you make money on something and that something is stolen - you are responsible I never claimed they arent responsible

by ps4fanboy 11y ago
Because how would you even do that with any sort of accuracy, do you check the global content registry database? Surely people dont expect to export the burden of protecting your IP to other companies?

Largely depends on the country, at the very least you can report them to the authorities for fraud.

by ps4fanboy 11y ago
While I sympathize with the author its (edit)unreasonable to suggest that they should be validating each course. However it appears more should be done to ease the path to getting your content taken down. You would think the person selling

Do not get me wrong, I also think its silly to be afraid of dying from terrorism, but those "mundane" ways of dying are the result of things that provide utility and benefit to their lives or are the result of old age. What is the

Some animals you can kill, some you cant, the hypocrisy of people. If this article offends you, think about where you live and how many animals used to live there, or the amount of deforestation caused to make your food, be it vegan or not.

So its a subjective claim then not something that can be looked quantitatively? There are around 13,000 murders per year in the US, how many of these murders per year result in the wrong person being convicted? I would be surprised if its g

Of all murder cases in a period of time what % of cases are effected by these issues with these types of forensic science (you arent suggesting all forensic science is bunk are you?), I never said the justice system is infallible, however a

Are you suggesting that the majority of convicted murderers are wrongfully convicted? And if you are what is the basis of that premise?

by ps4fanboy 11y ago
I have never seen a single person take the position you a suggesting with any real seriousness, this is a caricature of a real discussion, the problem is who gets to decide on what the current brand of "band ideas" are. At the mom

Its hard to be incarcerated for murder without someone actualy being murdered. Therefore the most effective way to avoid incarceration for murder is to stop murdering. People are not being wrongly incarcerated (wholesale) for violent crimes
