To Whom It May Concern:
There seems to be considerable confusion concerning the removal of
Southern Charms content from UseNet. In order to circumvent the
perpetuation of what amounts to the blatant wholesale exploitation of
the material in question, Southern Charms provides this official
statement to enlighten you.
On May 7, 2012, Southern Charms was awarded in excess of 7.1 million
dollars in it's first copyright violation case - case # C2-10-566 by
The Honorable Edmund A. Sargus, Jr, United States District Judge.
The amount of the award was based directly upon the amount of Southern
Charms content. UseNet currently displays more Southern Charms
content than the offender in the lawsuit,
You so eloquently describe your actions as "advertisement" that you
seem to think Southern Charms should be in concert with, when in
reality you are directly responsible for adversely affecting every
model in every image you have ever uploaded to UseNet in addition to
breaking the law.
Be advised, as Hugh Elmwood stated, YOUR anonimity also ends with the
billing process. By law we can and will obtain your contact
information should any further abuse appear..
Having successfully prosecuted copyright infringement, we are now
seeking to have all Southern Charms content immediately
disabled/removed from UseNet and any other Internet venue per DMCA
law. For those who are not aware, from our official DMCA:
"We further request that the following Southern Charms
exclusively licensed material posted on UseNet be
removed. Since this practice has started, it has cost us
millions in sales. We will not allow this practice to continue. It
is our intent to permanently remove all Southern Charms
content from UseNet.
As you nor the participants of UseNet neither
asked for nor received permission to use Southern Charms images nor to
make or distribute copies, including electronic copies, of
same, you and they have willfully infringed upon our rights
under 17 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. and could be liable for
statutory damages as high as $150,000 as set forth in
Section 504(c)(2) therein. All of the below listed images
are licensed exclusively to Southern Charms."
That is $150,000 PER VIOLATION...
Let me clarify- all of the images seen on Southern Charms are
copyright protected and licensed exclusively to Southern Charms.
Southern Charms and it's models will no longer tolerate the
unauthorized use of it's intellectual properties, and will prosecute
those who continue to infringe upon Southern Charms' copyrights..
