The shitstorm scenario of 2257

[RawAlex]

Tommy, the surfer becomes a "webmaster" and buys the content from the producer. Gets the model release, model IDs, the whole 9 yards. From there the path is pretty short.

Tommy - thats the path thats been taken in the past with "stalkers" - since they dont have access to it as a surfer they fraudently join a program to become a "webmaster"

Oh and one other little tidbit of info - since cyberstalking is a very large concern - there are still 5 states in the US that do not have any laws against cyberstalking and of the others most only protect the under 18 agegroup - there are also only two other countries in the world that have anti-cyberstalking laws - AU is one of them and I cant remember the other - its a shame that we cant even do anything about the stalkers that use hi-tech methods to harrass someone and eventually in at least 2 cases I know of either kill or injure the person being stalked

I have hundreds of sets of content with reseller rights. I've wanted to open a content store but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I was thinking this is a good time, since I have unblocked out ids on a good portion of this content.

But instead I think I'll wait until the court reaffirms the bullshit of the secondary producer designation.

Yeah I can sell the content ids and all, but I don't want to be morally responsible for some nut job who buys the stuff from me and then does something terrible.
