RE: Next Bull Run Narrative:
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
@edicted do you think you're above the law here on HIVE? Why can't you just cite your image sources when you use them like everyone else? Does it almost look like you purposely defaced the watermark on Cointelegraph's image just to hide the fact that you are stealing it?? I think so...
https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-going-to-moon-could-reach-1-billion-fox-news
Honestly I could care less, but the spam groups like @hivewatcher @hivewatchers @spaminator go after everyone else for doing this. Maybe there are double standards on hive that I can't see. Some accounts are allowed to break the rules while others arn't.

I absolutely did purposefully deface the cointelegraph tag: nice catch.
Did you really reverse engineer it on Google Images? Dedication!
I've used this image dozens of times with and without the IP tag.
Technically I'm not storing this image.
I'm only pointing to it with a link
The image is stored at https://images.hive.blog/, so if anyone has the right to be mad it's them.
And yet I've never been told by the people who run this server to stop ripping IP.
I have expressed my political views on this topic multiple times now.
IP is no longer relevant, I do not respect entities that claim they own ideas/content.
In fact I would argue that the entire point of crypto is to steal currency IP from central banks.
Hive is a largely lawless ecosystem, and the accounts you mentioned are not all-powerful arbiters of the network. If they come after me in regard to such petty matters (as they have already threatened to multiple times) I'll be detailing extensively in subsequent blog posts why the incessant focus on licking the establishment's boots is arguably damaging to the ecosystem as a whole.
If Hive.Blog personally requests that I stop uploading pirated images to their server, I'll take this much much more seriously, but until such times it is a non-issue for me. At the end of the day the pictures on my blog exist only to break up text into more readable blocks and have very little to do with the value I'm trying to post to the network. Yada yada yada.
Lol, I'm still chuckling with this, Edicted the outlaw 🤣.
Such a rebel that one.
He full on tattled on me after I responded.
Got the HiveWatchers warning 4 hours later... lol.
^^
Yeah saw that but I'm assuming it's an automated warning right?, I guess that the dude went to call daddy.
Imagine being simultaneously into crypto and also a cringeworthy authoritarian rule-follower.
Yikes. Couldn't be me.
Just an asshole, I've been checking his account and gives warnings to everyone, a Hivewatchers wannabe apparently. Bruh, we try to escape from authority but you can't escape from stupidity.
Yeah and his account is worth like $10 making me wonder if it's some alt account trying to hide their real identity.
OK thanks for the reply, now I understand and will get off your back about it. It doesn't bother me.
