Howdy folks, My apologies for not getting to this thread sooner but I've ben on the road for the past couple of weeks (currently in Utah) & my net time has been fairly limited. ChristianB, I appreciate the promotion, however IANAL (I am not a lawyer :-). Officially I am the Copyright Enforcement Agent for DAZ & I also occasionally represent several other Poser artists & vendors. xoconostle, I use my real name (D.M. Gorski) on the newsgroups when posting in an official capcity on matters of copyright involving DAZ or DAZ brokered products. Now as to the current situation with Geocities. They are owned by Yahoo! & the same people handle claims of infringement for both. The most expdient method to have a webpage removed is to do the following... Send a fax to ATTN: Anthony Coll at 310-302-1722 and include... 1.an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest; 2.a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed; 3.a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the site; 4.your address, telephone number, and email address; 5.a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law; 6.a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner's behalf. In addition to an electronic signature, Yahoo!/Geocities also requests a handwritten signature somewhere on the fax before they will take immediate action. If you prefer to email or aren't fax capable include the above 6 points of information but be prepared for a delay because they will contact you to verify your claim. Anyone who has any additional questions, feel free to contact me privately. I'll be in the offices at Daz tomorrow so I can be reached at the abuse@daz3d.com mailbox or if we can figure out how to get my computer hooked up to the network my coolerBear@att.net address.
