I'm so proud of myself. I just sent my first DMCA takedown notice. At first I felt violated and offended that someone was making money (probably not much) from my work, but now I've realized something far more important:

IT'S SO COOL BEING ON THE OTHER END OF THE LAW

Here's to many many more!

You really couldn't have written that to come off any more coarse if you had tried. On first reading I thought you were a complete douchebag until I re read and thought to myself: "I don't know the context and since I have incomplete information, I can assume for the purpose of this blog that someone was selling his music without his consent or paying him".

Yeah.. bad timing to cut to the quick since Destiny just did his whatever thing with it.

There isn't even a story here. It's like if I make a blog and say "Hey, something interesting happened while I was tying my shoes this morning," and that thing turns out to be "I tied my shoes."

Destiny's stream got taken down temporarily by a DMCA complaint. At first I thought this was some blog bragging about having taken his stream down temporarily . You picked a rather poor time to have posted this since that just happened, that's all.

Right, but what was the IP that Destiny got called out for?

Edit: I suppose I can use the search function.

A band he played while on stream. I'm not entirely sure exactly what happened- Destinys fans jumped all over it and the facts were obscured by outrage.


Well, I apologize for reacting poorly at first! I am glad you stopped someone from scamming money out of people with the help of your work! Cheers man!
Sorry again for having a less than polite tone before.

This is a timely blog to remind people that, despite some of the enforcement tactics employed by some rights holders, intellectual property is protected for a reason. It's incredibly easy to plagiarize, make money off of, or otherwise steals someone else's works that simply doesn't happen for concrete goods. In this case it seems like someone was trying to make money off work you intended to be freely available.

"I came across a paper of mine advertised[1] on your site. I was not able

If you read his statement is appears he doesnt care if its freely available. Just doesnt want people using him for money. :-/ I am curious on what the paper was about aswell. At least we know there are some people out there who do this for good reason. Too bad many company's and people do it for selfish or just plain retarded reasoning.

It's not a big deal and they'll probably just ignore it. I just disagree with taking information that's in the public domain and trying to sell it as though it's premium content. All they did was google for pdf files and scrape the results. If they were a site that just aggregated those search hits and directed users to the original content, I wouldn't mind what advertisement they got out of it since they are hypothetically improving access to the information. I don't want my name showing up on this sleazy site.

The paper was on peer-to-peer websocket authentication. I'm too bashful to link here, but if I work out some bugs in the code and integrate some nice PKI you may see it on github in the future. There's probably enough information here to do your own Google search.
