It's happened to some of the stuff I've posted for sure.
What Orwellian absurdity. Keep calm and carry on, Doctor. Your patients appreciate you.
Happened to me as well with my own material. When will this madness end?
palm to face...all I can say is internet archive, free music archive, bandcamp, soundcloud ;)
Orwellian indeed, bullying undoubtedly.
First amendment protects free speech, and mediafire action probably contravenes if this is your material.
Similarly since this is your copyrighted material, perhaps contact the anti-piracy email indicated, to say that someone has stolen your copyright (as indicated by the notice in which Fox are claiming the copyright). The response would indicate whether these are really anti-piracy organisations or merely the security wing of big businesses
Already have everything on Bandcamp and a few things on Soundcloud. I was pretty much already planning to move on from Mediafire and this seals the deal. It's too absurd to actually deal with. I probably post a few things that someone could contest, but I try to steer clear of commercially active music. You may have noticed that I've been reviewing far more psychedelia from the Bandcamp community recently. Of course getting slammed for my own creations is completely ridiculous. Any suggestions for my next file sharing port-of-call?
I'm making a move over to zippyshare, as it seems to be left alone for now.
OMFG, here we go again. The stupidity of Mediafryer and services like LeakID know no bounds. I'm not usually the type to jump on the conspiracy bandwagon, but this is just one of many instances that make me wonder if it isn't some sort of conspiracy to "bring down" creative commons artists who are "ruining the economy" and "destroying western culture" by daring to be so absurd as to give their own music away for free, music for which they hold exclusive rights? My friend Vulture, the Dutch dark ambient artist got locked out of his Mediafryer account and lost everything on it. Johnathan Zweiss of Sleepchamber got locked out of his own youtube account for posting videos of his own band. Who will be next?
I understand your totally legitimate gripe.Best wishes on a proper resolution.
Dr.,
You're not alone. This has happened to me as well. Mediafire has been systematically scanning .zip files that are held on their servers and deleting anything that appears to be linked to copyrighted material. In your case (as it was with my own), it appears that certain files and material that I owned were targeted merely by name association. In other words, a blanket scan by Mediafire revealed that something similarly named had been identified as copyrighted material. Without further investigation, they deleted the file regardless of who the rightful owner may have been, claiming that the burden of proof falls on you to prove that you are indeed the actual owner. Accused and punished without verification. If disputed, you must then submit concrete proff to Mediafire that you are the rightful owner of the copyright on said material. Only then will Mediafire release their block on that file.
It sucks, big time. After repeated attempts to verify my ownership of 'marked' materials, I finally gave up and moved on, denouncing Mediafire's Gestapo tactics in the name of copyright enforcement.
You could sue Fox for highjacking/stealing your intellectual property. Or have you used unlicensed samples?
Nope, everything from the songwriting to the recordings to the artwork were created by Glaze of Cathexis. But thanks for all your comments - it seems like a "thing" is going on here. Even with my reviews, I can admit that it's sometime in a grey area, but I try to stick to music that is not commercially active and take I down links whenever asked (sometimes there's a reissue I don't know about). Moving on to fresher file-sharing services for now.
So, the copyrights for Glaze of Cathexis are owned by Fox (and/or its subsidiaries and affiliated companies) are they? Since the good Dr. is certain he has not sold the rights, have Fox stolen them? It would appear this company are making decisions for intellectual property that does not belong to them. The very thing they are accusing you of?
There's a war on. It's real. Aaron Schwartz is a casualty.
Don't give up or give in. They, the information industry, are in the middle of a major offensive right now, on the corporate front. Google is a major part of it. They realize that the political will wasn't there when SOPA went down, but that they can block, ban and destroy whatever they want without individuals being able to do a damn thing about it.
fucking bithches.
Insane... as far as filehosts go, uploaded never seem to take anything down, and i've heard good things about AnonFiles.com
Note if you apply numerology to the name FOX, it is 666...
