lol they banned me for misinformation for calling theirs out. Deleted all the comments to control the dialogue as well.

Said I had proof during another exchange (they started) but the comments are deleted, admin came (yay I kinda thought) said the logs are public. Asked the mod (stamets) to show the deleted comments and the admin to show the log, or atleast how to access it, and banned again.

This place is worse than Reddit for this shit right now, you have an admin lying and hiding stuff for a mod, one they put as moderator for a bunch of communities. Thats not fishy or anything……

I would love to see this “public mod log” because their doesn’t seem to be a way to see (ALL) deleted comments on the current one.

I fully expect another ban for this, for no other reason than Stamets is a thin skinned mod who doesn’t have the emotional capability to mod, and antagonizes Lemmy users and uses their mod powers (abuse) to hide it. Its a fucking shame really, admins are letting it happen too, excusing it in a lot of cases.

Yep could easily turn coat and sell to highest bidder.

That’s why he’s in a prison hospital instead. I think they are called psyche wards or mental institutes in some places.

For a while Sony TVs didn’t allow the playback of .MKVs because they were the most pirated format.

It’s kinda the Media Players choice what formats they want to support in the end.

A court order can have you lock up your knives, and that’s the parallel voltage is making.

Of course there was no law or court order, those are parallels they are using for their arguments, and it’s based on real life situations.

It’s now up to the courts to decide and I don’t want it to favor Voltage myself here.

Yet everyone seems to the think I’m defending them….

I don’t support copyright, torrenting IS the same as distributing don’t move the goalposts…

And providing people information to make informed decisions isn’t spreading fear, quite the opposite.

On the other hand… lying and burying your face in the sand claiming it’s not illegal will get plenty of people into legal trouble. You’re spreading misinformation, that’s far worse than a fear monger regardless…

Fuck people who spread misinformation

Sure that was easy, first result on google.

Do you want more?

US has very similar laws, but the OC article is Canadian, so let’s keep it that way.

And of course it doesn’t apply to kitchen knives I never once said it did… unless a court order has been applied like I explained already…

You seem to be missing the part about a court order making the situation illegal, and until you comprehend this specific detail this discussion can’t continue.

It’s not illegal to do plenty of stuff, but once served with a legal document, those previously well legal things can become illegal. That’s the argument that Voltage was making with their first notice.

If you can’t address this specific concern, don’t deflect or move the goalposts, only address that specific point.

Source? Because it absolutely is a crime and illegal in most places.

What do you think a court order is…? Of course theres no law that specifies that, but if you’ve been told to do something, and don’t. That makes you negligent and can be an accessory.

I like how you don’t even address the other ones since they prove my point.

And nope, you don’t have to be aware, that’s the unfortunate part of it being “accessory”. You’re thinking of accomplice. Laws obviously vary place to place, but the generics are the same.

Edit, and actually yes it is actually illegal to leave a knife out as well! linky

You leave a firearm, knife or another weapon as classified in section 86 on an accessible surface such as a car seat, glovebox, kitchen countertop, on a bed, etc.

Change the knife to gun and that’s an entirely different scenario, you can be an accessory for being negligent with your firearm.

Drive your buddy around for a favor, he robs a store without you knowing and you drive him home. You’re now an accessory to theft.

Have your roommate steal your knife and the cops tell you to lock them all up, don’t do it, and guess what, you can be accessory for being negligent.

Sorry, but that is actually how the world works, nice bubble you seem to live in.

How could they get it wrong?

Either that person is lying, or their network is open and that’s the argument that was being made. By being negligent and leaving it open, you have now let people use your network to commit a crime.

You’re an accessory by definition for other criminal situations for doing similar.

The ISP would know who had what IP while the infringement happened though. Dynamic changes nothing.

The ISP than has to send the notice to the subscriber of that IP, that’s what that “notice-and-notice” regime means.

It’s an interesting tactic, they aren’t wrong that if someone received notice that they should do something to secure their network though. Lots of other crimes allow you to be an accessory for being negligent, not much difference here unfortunately.

I am reading your posts, image 3 you say you provided logs with no response. Your provided images show those same responses you claim to have not received.

I’m not gaslighting you, im trying to point out the flaw in your tirade here. You lied to them, why do you think they suddenly changed their attitude and deleted your account?

Yeah they are assholes, but you also lied to them and demanded a refund without following their service agreement. Look in the mirror a little bit before throwing shit.

Bottom of image 3, you said you provided logs with no response. Image 1 and 2 shows their responses to those logs.

So you lied to them…… not many company are going to continue to be civil to someone who is lying to them, since that’s almost always a defrauding situation. You created this entire situation now that I’ve looked at it closer actually….

Picture 3 was exactly that, you then lied to them in the response about providing the logs and them not responding. Your first two images show them Responding and explaining why those logs don’t work.

Every company is going to investigate a refund request to make sure they aren’t being defrauded or ripped off, people do it all the time. So they create policies and have to legally follow them to keep their business license.

Yes just issueing a refund is the proper customer service way, but you also want to make sure yet aren’t being defrauded, so you can also investigate odd scenarios. Like you being the only one with the issue….

And all you’ve said in all these exchange’s is you asked/demanded for a refund. The nuances of the semantics need not apply here. So what have you corrected other than reiterating each time that you demanded/asked for a refund?

You agreed to their terms of service when you signed up for their service…… so yeah if you ignore their due process, this shits entirely on you.

I keep forgetting how entitled people are these days….
