My point was "Yes, it does." as proverbs are based on overly simplistic ideal conditions that don't relate to reality.

Sorry. Get that you're pissed.

I'm a bit lost to what you mean?

If it's you modify their image then makes it your image then no since you had no right to modify it in the first place.
If it's they have copyright and ask me to remove it. Just like a DVD or MP3 then yeah that's pretty much it. We have to remove it.

Reason for the confusion is I'm not sure if you were arguing we shouldn't have to delete it or not.

I'm pretty sure we don't have the mildly-fascist myspace copyright agreement in the sign-up for AltNation saying that anything we post is property of Forbes?

At least I don't think we do.

[JZY]

maybe he means that if you did remove theres surely nothing complaining to an ISP can do about it?

[karbon14]

i wasn't arguing, just trying to understand what the reasons were. just like to know where i stand if it were to come up in future.

Ah right get you now but just because something is simplified doesn't mean that it's without substance.

The reason they become proverbs is because they generally convey some common sense or human aspect.

In this case an opinion has formed over time and this "little thing" has brought the opinion into a more fully formed basis on which I'd like to act.

Gotcha, and I was saying that you should never allow trifles to spur you into disproportionate action. Wait until someone actually does something really wrong first.

("The straw that broke the camels back" is just one of my pet hates, people normally just use it as an excuse to freak out over petty shit. Not that I'm suggesting...)

(Really not.)

We do, it's a pretty standard copyright.

Not that I actually view it that way but I don't like messing with legal documents, should maybe get a lawyer to write a better one.

You do keep me sane at times.
