ENG
Who are we? An organisation, similar to other copyright defending ones you can find on DA, we defend your copyright and do our best to get rid of copyright violating users mostly from polish blogs and more popular polish portals. Our origins are copyright defending blogs, but since hundreds need our direct help and it's not easy do delete a DA account, we came here.
Blog owners often don't know about copyrght at all, therefore we keep teaching people about it, and if they still don't want to delete the copyrighted material from their sites, we report them with a result of the mentioned site's suspension and then, in 90% of cases, deleting the site.
Since December 2007 we managed to delete over 1000 illegal blogs, and their number keeps growing.

Kim jesteśmy? Organizacją, podobną do innych grup broniących praw autorskich. Swoją działalność skupiamy głównie na blogach, ale ostatnio rozszerzamy ją na więcej polskojęzycznych portali i nie tylko. Nasze korzenie wywodzą się z blogów o podobnej tematyce, działających w połowie roku 2007 na Onecie, oraz sięgają jeszcze dalej, ku niezależnym, pojedynczym osobom zgłaszającym nielegalne blogi na własną rękę. Ponieważ na konto na dA nie jest ani łatwo się włamać ani nie można też go usunąć, przenieśliśmy się tutaj.
Właściciele blogów często nie wiedzą czym jest prawo autorskie, toteż staramy się szerzyć wiedzę o nim, a jeśli po zapoznaniu się z tą wiedzą wciąż nie chcą usunąć grafik, zgłaszamy taki blog, który w konsekwencji ulega zablokowaniu i w 90% przypadków kasacji.
Od grudnia 2007 udało nam się skasować ponad 1000 blogów z nielegalnie wstawioną grafiką, a owa liczba wciąż rośnie.

Group Beware there is a CyberBully and Thief amongst you user WickedGothicKitten as been stalking, stealing, bullying and harassing multiple artists here on DA and other Websites for Almost a Year.
This User is a known liar and manipulator and has gone by several usernames to try and avoid "The Haters" including but not limited to: SilviaTheHedgehog, CrystalizedHedgehog, EmberDelirious Gothic-Jackel-Cutie & most recently WickedGothicKitten.
This woman claims to have "Autism" and uses her "autism" as an excuse to steal, stalking, bully, harass and Death Threat people. And now she has added selling stolen artwork as “adoptables” to her list.

This User has for a YEAR posted slanderous material about a dear friend of mine, stolen from Multiple Artists, made Death Threats towards people who told her to stop, sold stolen artwork for Profit, and continues to be unrepentant in her immature actions.
Below are Multiple Journals documenting her Crimes

I highly recommended Black listing and Banning her from your group and all your affiliated groups before she starts Trouble. If she is here, she is looking to steal from your members and profit off their hard work.

I'm trying to start over with my page but other users are making out a evil villain saying that what I did months ago, that I'm still doing it with pieces that I actually spent time on making myself. So if you receive comments above mine from That-Gothic-Kitty or terrainjunkie then block and remove them.

Hikari-Kiyoko-Tenshi is a brain damaged thief. She has a very unhealthy obsession for Yugi and steals images from him from Pixiv.
Several people told her to remove it but she flagged them as spam ,hide the comments and comments with stupid answers while impersonating Yugi. She also mentions god all the time.

Please report this personHi everyone, it's me Karoine.
I know it's a little sudden, but please notice this person → SSJ2Note
This person's gallery is full of others' artwork. including mine, my friends' or even my screenshots of gameplay, or the letter which my friend sent me（WTF...）, without any permission.
In a word, this is completely a thief of artworks.
I said many times, DA is not your online gallery, upload your OWN works, but it seems no use.
Now the problem is, when I retweet others' artwork on Twitter, this person will upload it to DA immediately, it seems that I let all this happen... what a shame of Note's fans.
Anyway, please help me to report this person, it is funny that as the creater, I need to tell DA my real name and address otherwise my report will not be accepted, not mentioning the long steps of reporting as creater. Why should we spend this much time and effort just because someone uploaded my artwork? I wonder who are DA prot

Cześć, ciesze się że was odnalazłam heh. Dawniej występowałam na DA jako n-anim, ale nie ważne.
Chciałam zgłosić tu takiego jegomościa, który pomimo moich upomnień przywłaszcza sobie prawa autorskie. Zarówno Slenderman jak i Slenderpony nie są na pewno postaciami należącymi do niego. Bardzo prosiłabym o pomoc w nauczeniu zarówno tego kolesia jak i jego koleżanki czym są prawa autorskie.

So I found someone who is claiming art as their own when they are only coloring over or using vectors on already existing photos/ Screen caps. Many/most of this person's gallery consists of such paint overs that give 0 credit to the actual images.
He also Doesn't even bother with the backgrounds, and just blurs out pieces he can't/ doesn't want to paint over...
I am all for painting studies, but don't go painting over a picture and call it your own!!!!

Unmasking Zippy. The return of Lizheru (CallOut) "Everything we hate in others are aspects that we do not accept in ourselves"
Good day, good afternoon or good night.
Dear readers, 6 years later I publish this again.
Of course, we will talk about the same subject that even after all these years and
after all that time has passed, absolutely nothing has changed.
Anto Figueroa, known before as Zippy3006 and now under the new pseudonym of “Lizheru,Nittrus,LizheruSkeleton,Bones,” etc.
New usernames, same terrible attitude.
Anto has not changed absolutely anything, not even by the fact that he is 21 years old and should act accordingly.
As I managed to explain few years ago, this person has always been under the shadow of other artists, flattering them, giving them gifts, and later stealing and copying the style or technique of the supposed idol in a subtle way, so that the now “praised” artist that has believed the supposed good attitude and draws is unabl
Lizheru, a 21 years old being was harassing a 11 years old girl just because he think the little girl is "copying" his artstyle while he does exactly the same ripping off other's artstyles.

Art Thief / Harasser on the Loose :: JuanDDRR[Updates below]
Hello Folks!
I'm lifting my head from my grave because of a grinding issue.
My friend :iconhelenori: found some stolen artwork on :iconjuanddrr: profile and decided to contact him via note.
His art theft can easily be proven by a simple Google image search. Most of the artwork can be found on pinterest or even directly on dA.
Examples

As you can see in the comment of the last image the original artist already contacted him but he simply didn't care at all. Not because he doesn't understand English but because he simply didn't give a damn. And this person will soon come out as someone you simply can't talk with.

Vorebjorn stole a Picasso, scribbled on it, and then claimed it's protected by transformative fair use.
Stolen Piece:
Original Piece: www.pablopicasso.org/sleeping-…
What is a transformative use?
Transformative use is a relatively new addition to fair use law, having been first raised in a Supreme Court decision in 1994. (Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, 510 U.S. 569 (1994.) A derivative work is transformative if it uses a source work in completely new or unexpected ways.
Understanding Fair Use · University of Minnesota Libraries .
www.lib.umn.edu/copyright/fair…
What is fair use policy?
In its most general sense, a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work. Such uses can be done without permission from the copyright owner.
What Is Fair Use? - Stanford Copyright & Fair Use
fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/fair-use/what-is-fair-use/
Fair Use: What is Transformative?
What constitutes a transformative use of a copyrighted work?
In the 2 Live Crew case, the use of the lyrics was transformative because they poked fun at the norms of what was “pretty.” Justice Souter wrote:
"… the enquiry focuses on whether the new work merely supersedes the objects of the original creation, or whether and to what extent it is 'transformative,' altering the original with new expression, meaning, or message. The more transformative the new work, the less will be the significance of other factors, like commercialism, that may weigh against a finding of fair use."
(By the way, the rap group had initially sought to pay for the right to use portions of the song but were rebuffed by the publisher, who did not want “Pretty Woman” used in a rap song.) (Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, 510 U.S. 569 (1994).)
In the two decades that have passed, the standards of transformative continue to evolve. Still, the status of a transformative work seems to be defined by two questions:
Has the material you have taken from the original work been transformed by adding new expression or meaning?
Was value added to the original by creating new information, new aesthetics, new insights, and understandings?

I have a thief to report that uses three active accounts in order to evade suspension. / /
She uses mental illness as an excuse to steal other DA user's artwork to recolor over it and repost it. She says that by typing "Giving credit to owner" is enough for her to own the art. She is also known to falsely flag anyone as spam who tells her to remove the work, including the original owners of the artwork.

He even states in his bio that the account exists solely to post art he thinks is cool much like you would on facebook.... DA isn't intended to be like facebook or flickr. He does credit the artist but he doesn't have the right to post it from the artist and it's against DA TOS for sure.

EVERYTHING in this person's library. Each pic will have from pixiv or an actual link to the original pic. They will edit out the original artist's signature and not give them credit. The artist who are victims don't know how to complain because they are all japanese. Also this person had an account that was banned a year or so ago and is doing it again. Not only that but they encourage others to use this art like stock art multiplying the art theft even more!
