Internet Extortion (v.2.0.1)

For the past few days, on FaceBook, one of my more active friends and constantly banned "friends", Trag, Tragnificent, Tragneto, ImSoUHoez, UhoezMovement...etc, would post a status in which you could comment on.

Earlier this weekend he posted something to the effect of, "Fellas, let's create something like FB to earn some extra income." or something to that effect. I chimed it with some suggestions and it became apparent that it was ONLY talk, as he became EASILY frustrated. I mentioned that OTHERS are making money off HIS work, such as:
WorldStarHipHip:

Bossip (who conviently added a PRE-Roll to monetize stolen content):

This is 50:

AND even BACK on YouTube, lol:

Seem's he's just FINE with making other people money..."as long as the watermark is there", which links to a banned account.

....nothing.

THIS morning logged in and saw THIS status:

I commented:

I ended up blocked and can't comment.....*sniffle*.

Anyway, I once promoted his site and even put a banner linking on the front page. That was BEFORE. NOW that we've discussed, briefly, how to generate revenue, I'm guessing he's decided to E-Beg, posting his paypal, chip-in and FundRazr links to panhandle his FB "friends" for money.

When I went to his site and clicked the "About Us" tab, I was SHOCKED to see THIS out in the open:

Is this legal, while it isn't right, everything on the internet IS NOT public domain. I hate it when idiots scream "Free Speech", "Fair Use", "Public Domain" and have NO FUCKING IDEA what the fuck they're talking about.

Anyway...just wanted to let you know if you see ANY of your content running loose on the internet, I'm SURE you all know how to handle it.

Comment by MBD - Tha Last NetBender on September 27, 2010 at 12:24pm: Kidd. Click bombing is something new to me, but from what I understand, if Google is tracking ip addresses then I'd HOPE they're monitoring clicks from that location.

While they may not be able to block ads to that household, MAYBE they can block ads in that particular IP region, which is, maybe a 7-20 mile radius.

Comment by Kiddsock on September 27, 2010 at 12:16pm: How about smalled YouTube Partners that have been Disabled and Clickbombed? I understand Adsense is protecting the Advertizers. Now Top Tubers were hacked and clickbombed recently. Think they were disabled? very frustrating.
