Comments on: Girugamesh, Sakura-Con, & Copywhat? http://doalchemy.org/2009/04/girugamesh-sakuracon-copywha/ Thu, 29 Dec 2011 06:13:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Youko http://doalchemy.org/2009/04/girugamesh-sakuracon-copywha/comment-page-1/#comment-12075 Youko Wed, 15 Sep 2010 09:11:06 +0000 http://doalchemy.org/?p=374#comment-12075 The video was in direct violation because of the audio clip taken from the commercial at the end of the video. When tying that in with the fact that Sakura-con is strictly a family friendly convention, one could almost argue defamation. Sakura-con does endorse pornographic content and by using official sound clips from the commercial, it could lead viewers to believe that this content is approved and endorsed by Sakura-con and the ANCEA. Even attendees have been in trouble over using logos, mascots, etc. to promote the convention without permission of the Publicity staff. It's not their property to use, nor was the sound clip for LK. No one was out to bring him down. If he had done a mock-up of the clip and spoofed the name (calling it Salura-con or something similar) there would be no issue.

And I'm still very skeptical about their porn claims. The fact that they used the DMCA/youtube takedown like this still rubs me the wrong way.
