Angry_Ed posted:1. This definitely isn't perjury or outright illegal, right? Just because they gave permission on their website doesn't mean that it's a legally binding statement or contract, right? Sean Vanaman even made the point that "well technically all Let's Play's are infringement, it's just a question of how much a developer or publisher lets it slide or supports it". Which I know to be more or less true, since developers have handled this stuff in many different ways, from blanket allowances, to contract deals, to just not allowing monetization at all. It is legally binding actually. The way it works is if you place copyright rules on your site, and a reasonable person has access to them, they override whatever the "standard" rules for copyright are (assuming your rules are reasonable in turn). Angry_Ed posted:2. Is this a "proper" use of the DMCA? Some people with slightly cooler heads have suggested sending a cease-and-desist rather than using a DMCA takedown. Hell no, and actually PDP has grounds for a countersuit from what I understand. Using DMCA for this was a BAD idea, especially since PDP didn't do it on a stream of their game. They honestly hosed up and a c&d might have been a better choice (though legally dubious) Angry_Ed posted:3. Even if it is fair use (which if I understand correctly, would have to be proven by PDP in court), does Campo Santo have any legal recourse to say "we don't want our game associated with this person even in a tertiary way because of their abhorrent world views"? That I don't know, sadly. EDIT: this dude seems to know whats up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhn6yrNzM3M Seraphic Neoman fucked around with this message at 00:57 on Sep 14, 2017 |
