I have no Pinterest accou...thank you glass artist. I have no Pinterest account to test any of this stuff. <br />This morning, January 14, 2013, I have a reply from Pinterest in my email:<br />"[Pinterest] DMCA request 50314648 complete<br /><br />Hi Margaret Meehan,<br /><br />You recently asked Pinterest to remove the material identified in the following DMCA notification: 50314648<br /><br />This is to let you know we have removed that material. While most content is removed immediately, it may take up to 24 hours to be removed from all servers.<br /><br />Sincerely yours,<br /><br />Pinterest.com"<br /><br />So, the offending photo is taken down. I have no compensation for my time or the use of my photo. This is the same if you do your own DMCA take down notices for any other site. To gain some return on your time and efforts I believe you would need to hire a lawyer.<br /><br />The offending Pinner, in this case, still has my photo up on his/her own blog, with my watermark removed. I complained on the offenders blog also by a comment on the blog. Now the Offender has put small text under the photo linking the photo to the original photo on my blog. BUT this is still copy right infringement, as I do not consider my photos to be anything but copyright protected and not to be used without my permission. Now I will have to educate the Unpolished or Unprincipled blogger about copyright infringements and penalties for removal of watermarks.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149850205484929079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11611917.post-31919921083449612092013-01-13T16:50:49.060-08:002013-01-13T16:50:49.060-08:00http://pinterest-out.blogspot.com/2012/10/pinteres...http://pinterest-out.blogspot.com/2012/10/pinterest-strike-system-cruel-joke-on.html<br /><br />Giving strikes is totally inconsequential. All it does is lull copyright owners into thinking that Pinterest has penalties for repeat infringers.<br /><br />Pinterest has no penalty for repeat infringers at all.A Glass Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04547449968402945578noreply@blogger.com
