Re: My Website Has Been Taken Down

I, too, have seen a 'Vince Cooper' take-down request, not for my own
sites, I don't have any of that material - but for another site.

I am quite suspect at the very least, as some several years back I did
look, and even now.

The email contained no contact information, and came from a gmail
acct.

The most obviously perfect domain for them, 'completetechnology.com'
is owned by a domain squatter.

The tone of the email hints at it causing lost revenue, yet this
product was even barely for sale when it was actually marketed.

A simple google search for an existing company, even with a very
common name isn't even hard, being blatant produces no results, even
though the email eluded to, if you had looked in the "Denver dex" ..
you would have found me. Dex? Brainwashed by the telco..

Well, dexknows.com ... doesn't know. Doesn't know "vince cooper",
doesn't know "complete technology", ... it doesn't know.

On the other hand, there is, too- a reason for defending a copyright,
it sets a precedent for the future. Perhaps this individual is who
they say and there is a reason. Or perhaps because they discovered it,
they simply decided to be a spoil sport about it. Who knows.

Until there's some way of correlating with a map and phone directory
that show a valid listing for said company, since now that they have
declared themselves as "Complete Technology", there can't be any
company name changes otherwise we know it's Complete Bull.

The Copyright owner has the right to restrict use of his work no matter what the status of it is. That also goes for other countries including Canada. Small parts of published guides could be published for public view, but not complete works and for sure the program or it code.

Over the years while I owned the rights to GBBS/LLUCE, I had asked sites to remove the code as well as the manual; I did this until I had time to deal with the program to protect the value; though it was not worth much. I sold the program to Kevin Smallwood. He now controls GBBS/LUCE as well as EXfer. I don't know his plans but he has the right to limit the access and use.

If someone wants to challenge those right to this or any other program they may find it very costly since the same rules apply to this as well as music, movies, and books.
