I have not said anything that I know or believe to be untrue about DirectNic, and as far as I've seen, they're not denying the events as reported by Slick. I don't believe the facts are what's in dispute here. What is in question, is whether or not people agree with their policies and the ways that they've chosen to handle things. I have every right to provide opinion on that, and if I chose to do so in the future, I'd also have every right to recommend to people that they not do business with DirectNic because of it. What exactly in all of that do you think is cause that I should have lawyers sicked on me? I'd love to see your logic in that? The United States is not a country where calls for boycott are illegal. |

first... you gather information from BOTH sides second... you carefully ponder the perspectives, views, responsiblities, obligations and rights of both sides third... you discuss it in an open, unbiased and honest way. giving careful consideration to all the issues involved and the weight of each fourth... you reach a conclusion fifth... you decide on a course of action not 1) some guy says something 2) ignore the other side completely 3) start making wild assumptions and threats 4) respond to those questioning you with the suggestion that they hate free speech. |

Boyalley, calls for boycotts because of misinformation or outright fabrications would certainly open someone up for all sorts of problems.
You keep yelling "free speech", but you haven't shown yet where any legal free speech has been restricted. Model privacy isn't an issue (they don't want ID's with names or other personal information on them, just a picture and a date of birth visible on what would be an ID card).I am not sure about which leg he ha You keep yelling "they don't have the right", but their ToS has been reposted any number of times already showing where they are not obliged to provide service for anything illegal. Facing a complaint about CP and the domain holder not being able to willing to provide the needed documents... It's all high drama, save it for a llama. The only one who should be bitching should be Slick, and after checking out his sites and listening to his operating methods, well... |

They asked for driver's license or passports, and they locked the domain. That's my understanding of the events as they have unfolded, and I've not seen anyone from their company deny that. As for this, all of the other information other than the picture and birthdate can be blacked out. That's something that you invented. I see them say nothing about blacking out information in the original email that they sent to him. |

Boyalley, looks like you're defending true actual freedom from the 'patriotic freedom loving conservatives' yet again. Good job.
What are your domains pleasurepays? I want to do a little snooping around, see if I can get your registrar involved. Maybe give you a little personal perspective on the situation. |

The original request was for id that showed a clear picture and dob, therefore this could be accomplished by blacking out the other personal info. |
Quote:
"We require a current state issued photo id or passport for the models represented on the followings site" My take on it: They asked for IDs and Passports, and they said make sure they're legible. |

Wouldn't expect you to see the differenc in your perfect "its us against them" Utopia ... where your world would be perfect if there wasn't an opposing viewpoint to yours. Funny that you think like Hitler and mock others for supporting the infringing on your "freedoms"... when your remarks are almost always that of someone who would joyously execute every man, woman and child who dissagreed with you. |

Boyalley, come on. Save the drama for your llama. They asked to see a model ID to see image and DOB. everything else can be blacked out (and would similarly be in a DMCA request, which this is very similar to).
You are trying to create drama where not exists, because all your other points have petered out. |

The company in question is threatening to go beyond their legal abilities and shut down Slick. So is it not right for someone else to call for a legal boycott of someones business because they employ questionable tactics? I think it is completely founded and the right thing to do. |

What you are suggesting would totally eliminate any promotion and money making done by the little guy. The whole industry would fall into the control of only large companies, and alot of people would be out of work. |

Nicely put... That was prolly the most valid point made in this thread... |

It's a WRONG policy for them to have. Legal rights or not, it's NOT the RIGHT thing to do in my opinion. and It "MAY", and I've stressed that word, violate privacy laws of certain countries and/or states to turn over identification documents of models. As I keep saying, I'm not an attorney. I'll let those that are talk about legalities. I honestly don't even think this needs to be an issue of what's legal for them to ask for or not. It's a simple matter of what's good policy vs. what's bad policy. I think this is bad policy, and I think if they keep it, we as an industry should not support them. Simple as that. |
