The original article is here:



If you read the original article he sent several emails threatening to sue. Who would have thought that having images you own, took yourself, and did not give permission for this guy to steal could put him on such "shaky legal ground". lol

Do you make your own music? What did you end up doing?

This conversation is as old as the Internet; it just keeps getting photoshopped into more modern versions (such as this "GMail" incarnation). Still mildly amusing.

Ask him for a percentage of his benefit then. If he is using your material to win money and he wants your pictures (he has been using for free), then at least ask him for something back.

You can also ignore him and if he starts spamming block him from your list.

EDIT: Oh well, read the whole story in the link. Happy to see he stopped writing you mails...

I did a search on headfi to make sure no one had posted it before. I didn't find anything. Also, on the blog from the original link he posted it this year so it sounded recent. When/where did you hear this before?

I hate that guy.

I just HAD to know what this "Goatse" was some time ago when I saw it mentioned somewhere.

If you're reading this and are wondering too....DON'T DO IT. You were warned.
