So I drunkenly sent viralhog some hate mail last night claiming I reupload their content without permission or credit to make them waste their time and they sent me this
>Hey user,
>We’re sorry to hear you feel this way, but please understand that we do not make copyright laws – we only enforce them on behalf of our clients.
>Our clients are typically individuals who filmed an interesting video and want to both make money from it and protect their work. When you infringe upon their property, not only are you breaking the law, but you are liable for the massive financial damages you are incurring for both ViralHog and our clients.
>We have passed along your information to the proper authorities and our legal department, and they will take it from here. You may put your legal counsel in touch by directing them to [email protected] or by writing or calling our office. If you would like to help to mitigate damages and your liability, or if you believe we have made an error, please reply immediately with the URLs for any locations/accounts where you have uploaded the content.
>Thanks for understanding. Sincerely, ViralHog Staff
I'm not even in the same country. Is this even worth my time? I literally sent this just to make them pissed off
Also I used my regular email with full name at home on my wifi
Ryan Flores
Youre stupid as fuck.
Owen Harris
thanks babe. should I just send them pornhub URLs or something?
Ayden Morris
do an hero
Ian Fisher
You're fucking stupid op, and if you're not even the same country just ignore it
Evan Reed
You should probably take a screenshot of the actual email you sent and their reply, otherwise I don't believe this story
Cameron Kelly
where is the evidence that you actually committed copyright violation? you could be lying.
Caleb Miller
So you didn't actually reupload their content? Then why are you worried?
Thomas Green
happy?
exactly
they're known for being pretty agressive with their legal team
Jaxson Phillips
>Also I used my regular email with full name at home on my wifi lmao
Aiden Russell
>the troll gets trolled
Henry Jenkins
Hahahahahaha you seriously can't be that stupid
Jose Thomas
The other day I sent an email to the police and I told them I drove home drunk. They said they were going to backtrace my email and find me but jokes on them, I don't drink and I don't even live in America.
Angel Nguyen
kek. There's just something so satisfying about knowing some shill with a puckered asshole is desperately grasping at straws to get back at someone
Evan Sanders
how would they even start this case, they'd have to prove damages and that you are the owner of something that causes damages
Jaxson Reyes
I am, thanks. It's even more funny that you actually did it. If you're not even in the same country just make sure that they have no branches in yours and disregard their threat
Matthew Ramirez
Well you can shitmailpost a little longer if you feel like it. Nothing to lose really.
Christopher Williams
they might be aggressive, but what are they going to litigate about? maybe i'm missing something, but it doesn't sound like you've actually done anything wrong (other than send them a mean email)
Elijah Bailey
Enjoy getting marked from murica, if you come you will probably get airport arrested
Kayden Richardson
Depends where you live. I'm brazilian, therefore immune to copyright laws. Personally, I would send a ASCII goatse back.
Zachary Stewart
>buy and sell the hottest viral videos the fuck is this bullshit even? i had literally no idea such a market even exists i mean people cannot be that retarded, right? but no apparently there is money here FUCK
Nolan Jenkins
that's good
Wyatt Phillips
do you have one handy?
Andrew Lee
>shill That's not what shill means. Please stop using this word so liberally before it winds up like "redpill" - not meaning anything.
Levi Hughes
I just mean it in the sense of looking out for the interests of bigger bodies without compensation. But lawyers get paid so they're just paid shills
Noah Richardson
Good point, as a prank I'm going to go to my local police station and confess to a robbery that never happened as a prank. I think they'll find it very funny.
Ryan Jones
webm or it didn't happen
Caleb Lopez
you'll get arrested for a false police report, which is a crime, but lying to ViralHog about copyright infringement is not a crime. Heh, just thinking about it, maybe OP got ViralHog to file a false police report.
John Jenkins
Ohh salt boy, being so cool dropping salt on things
John Collins
Well this is a decent go at viral marketing, I'll give you that OP.
Easton Miller
Shysters
David Howard
what?
Jacob Jenkins
>being this salty
Angel Lee
I'll admit, that made me exhale out of my nose a bit quicker
Ian Hernandez
they wouldn't file a police report but that would be jokes
yeah okay there fuckboi
So ignore it? I didn't actually do anything except send hate mail. I don't want to get subpoenaed at work or some shit
