Copyright Infringement

[bogwitch]

Part Three of the Black Widow Photo comic has been removed by Box for 'Copyright Infringement' with no explanation of why and with no way of questioning it.

Why Part 3???????

Possibly they haven't noticed parts 1 and 2 yet?

Weird. Is it because of Mattel or because of Marvel, do you suppose?

I have no idea. there is nothing in that part that is contentious that I can tell. even clutching at straws, the only things that could be objected to (the likeness of spike, fan fic, the doll porn) are not exclusive to part three.

How bizarre! They flagged up a couple of mp3s I had on there, which made me shut everything down, but the choice did seem quite random (I think it was a Crystal Castles track, which not the band I would think of when it came to aggressive copyright hunting). But it was a fair cop on my part... Yours just seems strange... Can't you appeal???? A woman's doll porn is her own business! And you made half the set.

MP3s I would understand, but part 3 of BW has virtually nothing beside the dolls that I didn't make. It seems so arbitrary. I can only think it might be because of the sex, but then it's pretty tame and that hardly constitutes copyright infringement. I wish they would give fuller reasons. I am perplexed,

I couldn't find a way to appeal or get more information. The way they have just deleted the file makes me suspect I wouldn't get far anyway.

I really should get this web-hosting sorted out so this isn't a problem anymore.

I have a feeling it's all done by bots like everything else, so maybe one of the photos looked too much like some promo shots for something. Or, as I wouldn't be surprised by, they just randomly troll accounts because they assume everyone has copyrighted material up somewhere and they want to act as though they're looking... The legit businesses will just ignore it and move on? (/ get the pro version).

PS. Please help me; I keep buying things on ASOS...!!!!!!!!!

My office is two buildings down from ASOS. I could pop in and get them to ban you?

I am certainly not buying the Pro version now! I need that money for my own Ebay addiction (currently rubber stamps).
