Was bored, so I typed 'fullbugged' into google to see what would come up, and this came up, http://mwvroz.110mb.com/limni.html
about a year or so ago I found on some torrent site I cant even remember a Ozzy Osbourne Salt Lake City 1984 Dvd so after that I thought I would share it on demonoid, now I discover on this site whoever runs it has copied everything I posted, including the picture, and just pasted it in, including MY USERNAME and is now selling this thing for 20 bucks online, what a piece of shit, I wonder if I should be worried about this, that someone making money off of this could come back to me....:umm:

Wow. On the radio there's this ad running often for a site "reputation defender" that supposedly has some automated response allowing you to restrict your personal data like that off a website.

It is a paid service: http://www.reputationdefender.com/product

I like listening to Leo Laporte's Tech Guy show on the weekends, and he usually explains everything in laymans' terms easily. Especially when its' the technical services of an advertiser.

I recorded Boston in Wichita, KS in March of 1979. I put it up on the net last year to share amongst bootleggers for free, even created a custom cover for it.

Now Japanese bootleg labels are selling it online (one label is named Uxbridge):

I emailed the main site, turns out its a free webpage hosting site, and complained, and got this automated response-

We're on it captain!

We won't necessarily reply. Because 99% of cases, the reported domain gets removed.

So I hope the domain gets canned, would look good on the bastards.....:biggrin:

Well, I noticed this morning that the website did remove my username, but is still selling the DVD, didnt get an email saying sorry or anything, the question becomes now do I still try to have the site shut down or just let it go? It still bothers me that they are selling the DVD but...

Which is the greater wrong: FB giving away his project made from copywritten material - or the dickhead putting it up for sale?
