        Someone should go after oDesk, the leading resource for cloners and "spinners" of other sites.

            Thanks man, yeah and my lawyer in LA sent them a letter back after their C&D calling their claim "baseless"

            They were whining, and bitching because I was getting SE traffic from their terms like "FML sex" "fml sex stories" etc.

            Seems they can't handle a little competition. Heh.

              Myspace should send a similiar C&D to Facebook.

                  what about this?

                  The fact is just that the website (FMSL) is an entire copy of FML.

                  I love the source code in French. I'm sure the guy behind fmysex.com understand it ;)

                  (french because the first website was viedemerde.fr then turned into the english version FML, so the same code)

                    The script was not stolen. It was written by a third party, I talked with them. You can't just "steal" a script.

                    They merely replicated it, it's not hard to write that script, it's pretty basic functionality. And you cannot copyright a concept and they have no patent on anything.

                      Can you actually send a DMCA based on a concept that is not patented?

                      It's not TV

                        why would they stupidly use all the same names for classes, etc... could have just as easily been just a little discrete

                        that kind of laziness certainly can't help in a legal situation

                                Actually they didn't send the DMCA till the beginning of 2010 I think. I've been really busy with other things and finally re-connected with a developer friend of mine who is ready to work on it. We'll be developing it further and re-designing the site.

                                                Already got a new one. But I can't blame my old host, it was a DMCA, and they are required to remove the content after 48 hrs, without a counter-notice.
