ash48I don't know why this still shocks me but it does.
This person (LezraGR) has not only posted a couple of my vids but has also put their own watermark on it. They have also blocked me (and probably others) from commenting so I can't even protest it. What the...? There's a heap of other vids there, which I'm sure are stolen also.
My two (I Go to Work and When You're Smiling) were posted over a year ago but there are some recent SPN ones that I'd place bets aren't his (edit...looks like the poster is a teenage boy (?)).
*head shake* It puzzles me what these people get out of doing this. I guess when you make something public like that anyone can grab it. But it's the same as stealing someone's story.
Anyway. Not much can be done I suppose, especially if he's blocked comments. What a loser.
ETA: ARGHHH!! I just found this also. My Woo Hoo vid The thing is... he has a facebook link. I don't have Facebook. But if anyone is able to contact him there it might be worth telling him stealing is not on.
(Missing SPN! These mini breaks suck!)

Okay, went and left a few not so complimentary comments.

I've been thinking about watermarking. I'm in two minds because I don't want something intrusive. I'll have to play with something.
And thanks! I think he will have got the message that stealing ain't on.
