|
|
Lately somebody posted several movies and TV shows for sharing with others, but, as this is not legal, I closed all these topics and send them into the trashcan.
No more posts with this content will be allowed from now on and will be inmediately deleted. If this particular user, or anyone else, doesn't respect this rule, his/her account will be closed for three days. If he/she continues posting afterwards, the account will be definately closed and the IP and email banned.
I don't want us to have problems and our board beeing closed.
Thanks for understanding,
Pati |

Well, sharing telecasts of RG competitions is also illegal. _________________ I have a gymnastics blog again. Here we go. toomanyamanars.blogspot.com |

I did not see those threads before they were closed, but I'm just curious, how did they share actual video files on the board? Did they embed YouTube videos? Since I thought there was no real way to attach files in a post.
I think at least in North America and Europe, a site wouldn't be liable even if a user posts content that is copyrighted, as long as the site not hosting it? I do respect Pati's concern that we don't want any sort of legal problems though. |

Nothing will happen in the video section.
I referred to complete movies beeing shared here on the board, not seperate scenes. The same for gymnastics videos, unless you don't give the link to the whole World Championship e.g., it'll be still allowed to share.
Bye,
Pati |
