Happy Birthday To You

Sorry, but no one gives a fuck what you do. To be a martyr you have to become one of the big guys. But are you against copyright regulation? Did we finally discover the regulation you oppose?

No, no one gives a fuck, thats why you keep responding.
If anyone is trying to be a "martyr" it is you and your Ayn Rand pussy licking.
Listen dip shit, we are not talking about passing yourself off as someone else. I am talking about fans who simply talk about or play media they like. You do know you have violated copyright laws by discussing the NFL in the NFL thread here?
You don't have the NFL's permission to say the word "Jets".

following BS's cue:
“A meritocratic society is one in which inequalities of wealth and social position solely reflect the unequal distribution of merit or skills amongst human beings, or are based upon factors beyond human control, for example luck or chance. Such a society is socially just because individuals are judged not by their gender, the colour of their skin or their religion, but according to their talents and willingness to work, or on what Martin Luther King called 'the content of their character'. By extension, social equality is unjust because it treats unequal individuals equally.” "Political Ideologies" by Andrew Heywood (2003)
All you are doing is demonstrating your ignorance of copyright law. It is called "fair use" and even if the NFL tried to sue us the case would be summarily dismissed. Not that the NFL would give a fuck even without fair use. I'm sorry, but you have completely failed to break the law. Try posting a full video of a game and you would be breaking the law. Although big NFL still probably wouldn't find it worth the effort to "bully the little guy".

I always find it funny people who don't give a fuck post anyway. First off, this isn't for people who don't give a fuck, but for those who do.
This actually cuts more to the core of the uber rich writing our laws that allow rich people with lawyers to bully those who don't have the same power. This isn't just about Universal Music, but corporate bullies in general. They are not going after someone who is faking ownership of ABBA music, and on top of not being paid a dime, that station already pays royalties.
No different than the bullshit of copyright on "Happy Birthday To You". No different than the stupid disclaimer in the NFL games "descriptions or accounts of the game without the express written permission of the NFL is strictly prohibited". This is nothing but monopoly of power.

I find it hard to believe Universal would shut down a website that paid them royalties. Why would they prevent someone from paying them pure profit? Do you have any details? Because a google search failed to find it. I suspect that either they didn't pay royalties or possibly Facebook shut it down mistakenly believing it was infringing the copyright. Facebook has been accused of being too heavy handed with preventing copyright infringement because they don't want to face a lawsuit like Myspace did. Universal would rather sue Facebook because they have money. If it was Facebook, then simply proving to them that the proper royalties were paid should be enough to get it back up.
Why should "Happy Birthday To You" be any different from any other song? Or are you opposed to all copyrights?

I just saw your post as an excuse to post another meme.
