Unprecedented 3 ELI Video Updates Released in Nov. 2011
« on: November 19, 2011, 01:15:56 AM »
Never in the history of ELI have we issued 3 video updates in a single month. Because of the drama that unfolded this week with false accusations of defamation and bogus DMCA complaints against ELI from so-called expert copyright lawyers, the ELI community and ELI Defense Team jointly fought back with our own vocal counter-arguments and DMCA counter-notification letters.

As a follow-up and recap, Oscar and Matthew took a stand to come together and produce these videos to reflect on the week's dramatic events. Enjoy.

================


Matthew Chan & Oscar Michelen explain ELI's use of the word "extortion" and phrases "extortion letters" and "legalized extortion".



Matthew Chan & Oscar discuss recent DMCA complaints made against ELI and ELI accounts and how they fought back using DMCA Counter-notification letters.



Matthew Chan & Oscar Michelen discuss the mistakes newbie lawyers make and how they react when negative spotlight is on them.

I'm a non-lawyer but not legally ignorant either. Under the 1st Amendment, I have the right to post facts & opinions using rhetorical hyperbole, colloquialisms, metaphors, parody, snark, or epithets. Under Section 230 of CDA, I'm only responsible for posts I write, not what others write.

Awesome videos guys! Thanks so much for all the great information and taking the time to produce the vids.
I agree with Oscar's comment about having a "fair resolution" on these photo infringements. Where is the honor for an attorney generating such fear and preying on the public with these letters. Most people are completely oblivious. I had no idea what this was all about until I found this forum. A simple "cease and desist" is more than understandable in these situations. I hope one day this whole "infringement" and "extortion" photo game will be resolved.

As usual, stellar job!, good points and informative!
Most questions have already been addressed in the forums, get yourself educated before making decisions.

Any advice is strictly that, and anything I may state is based on my opinions, and observations.
