what is prince thinking

i was going through the registers news pages today to find more info about a few things and found the following page

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/10/30/pennsylvania_mom_sues_universal_over_prince_laden_video_clip/

a few of you may think oh well it's sorted. but this is the kinda idiot we made famous, i like a lot of princes music. but now since he tragets fan sites, and photoshop contests (b3ta) (linky) yeah it;s harmless fun for members of b3ta. it's not like the infamous vigin compo (linky), that deserved to come offline, ( i dont shock easilly some of the shit on that made me uneasy)

but anyway back to prince. he bullies people with websherriff and DMCA notices. well under united kingdom laws i am sure they mean fuck all. (even if the server is in america.) i also remember this as a result of the owner of cr3ative media mentioning the same on the /talk board. but it makes me wonder what powers does websherrif actually have under UK law.
i admit copyright is copyright, but when a photo is edited who owns the copyright, the original owner holds the copyright on the main image but the rest is copyrighted to the editor.
i (when is possible) ask for permission when editing photos. but it does make me think that one day i could be stung due to websherrif or someone who dont check there emails for "request to modify" requests.

what do you think.


second thing. who has been trying to annoy my webhost.

Hi!
You may probably be very curious to know how one can make real money on investments.
There is no need to invest much at first.
You may commense to get income with a sum that usually is spent
for daily food, that's 20-100 dollars.
I have been participating in one company's work for several years,
and I'm ready to share my secrets at my blog.

Please visit blog and send me private message to get the info.

P.S. I earn 1000-2000 per day now.
