Latest Salvo from the idiots at Asiansnakewine.com

What am I supposed to do?  The Rocket Scientists that run Asiansnakewine.com have now contacted Blogger.com because I have ONE copy written image of theirs on my website.  Wooooooooo is me, Wooooooooo is me, WOOOOOO IS ME!.

According to the Email below, that page is now in “Draft Status” and cannot be viewed now…..big whoop.  In their jealous rage (for loosing the PayPal Dispute) Asiansnakewine.com has now caused the one page on my site that actually spoke POSITIVE of their product to be removed.  Now, if anyone comes across my site, they are 100% Guaranteed to see what sleezeballs these guys are, learn their selling tactics and know once and for all how AWSOME (insert Sarcasm HERE) their customer service is.  I might put up a SPLASH type page there in the future, but for now….it’s to much work.

Needless to say, I find the whole thing funny.

Here is the Email I received an hour ago-

Blogger has been notified, according to the terms of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), that certain content (the image at http://www.asiansnakewine.com/sites/asiansnakewine.com/files/imagecache/product_full/vin-de-serpent-zoom-3_1.jpg) in your blog is alleged to infringe upon the copyrights of others. As a result, we have reset the post(s) to "draft" status. (If we did not do so, we would be subject to a claim of copyright infringement, regardless of its merits. The URL(s) of the allegedly infringing post(s) may be found at the end of this message.) This means your post - and any images, links or other content - is not gone. You may edit the post to remove the offending content and republish, at which point the post in question will be visible to your readers again.

A bit of background: the DMCA is a United States copyright law that provides guidelines for online service provider liability in case of copyright infringement. If you believe you have the rights to post the content at issue here, you can file a counter-claim. For more information on our DMCA policy, including how to file a counter-claim, please see http://www.google.com/dmca.html.

The notice that we received, with any personally identifying information removed, will be posted online by a service called Chilling Effects at http://www.chillingeffects.org. We do this in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). You can search for the DMCA notice associated with the removal of your content by going to the Chilling Effects search page at http://www.chillingeffects.org/search.cgi, and entering in the URL of the blog post that was removed. If it is brought to our attention that you have republished the post without removing the content/link in question, then we will delete your post and count it as a violation on your account. Repeated violations to our Terms of Service may result in further remedial action taken against your Blogger account including deleting your blog and/or terminating your account. If you have legal questions about this notification, you should retain your own legal counsel.

Sincerely,

The Blogger Team

  3. I will point out that "Free" does not have a profile publicly available and I would suspect that is the folks from AsianSnakeWine.com trying to get in a free plug (seriously). Unlike them, I leave all posts up, so if Free got their on time...congrats. I stand by my facts.
