Re: has anyone


Sorry, but this reply shows your lack of understanding regarding DMCA ... specifically regarding attorneys fees that are recoverable.

The advice you are suggesting is you have to have deep pockets and it isn\'t worthwhile ... that\'s just not true, depending on which aspect of the law was violated, as there are multiple criteria in the DMCA.

You can\'t just lump it all together for a simplistic answer.

Yes, many times. Even by print magazines. I\'ve dealth with two magazines this year alone. Use a watermark. If someone removes the watermark, he\'s intentionally violating your intellectual property rights and that is very helpful if you decide to sue them.

Generally it\'s a good idea to write to the violators and tell them exactly what laws they\'ve broken. Then you can either ask them to take the photos down or ask them to pay you for the unauthorised usage of your work. If they refuse, then find a good lawyer that deals with intellectual property and let him do the talking. Of course this will cost some serious money so if you go this path, be prepared for a lawsuit, unless you want to pay the lawyer from your own pocket.

The other way to deal with it is to leave it alone. You just have to decide if it\'s worth your time, money and effort.
