Post by: vectorsforall on July 09, 2019, 13:17

How can they let a blatant copyright infringer online after deleting dozens of copies of my work!!!

Its disgusting they are aiding and abetting copyright thieves.

Just be thankful they have made it a policy to delete your account in retaliation  :o (a joke but I'm sure one day it will become policy)

Seriously though the only way anything seems to happen these days is to complain to Jon Oringer direct.

Please drop the link to the portfolio here, so we can check for more copyright infringements and file DMCA's.

Here is the link:

Almost (if not every) all the videos are copies. If you click on a thumbnail and then on the video page look down at the 'similar content', you always have a perfect replica, you click on it and you're on another portfolio.

I can't believe how SS is faking to be blind

Saying nothing new, full self promotional with clean CTA to watch the embedded 8 min blah blah video and check this Waterloo thing. Typical PP article.
