[Locked] Charging subscriptions for fair use Doujin and hentai

I wanted to write something but ehhhh *sigh* not worth anyone's time.

You can't claim they're fair use and illegal at the same time... Pick one.

Who is the oppressed owners? The artists? Last time I checked they were getting paid for their work here. Were you not here when Jacob announced the switch over details or did you not care enough to look at them?

Yes it's called pirating and you know what? Alot of h sites are doing this and the artist are getting shit for it. Every artist who's work are featured on this site are well aware that the site is making a profit from them. However, unlike other sites this site actually pays them for their creation through subscription fees.


Again Fakku pays all the artist who's work are posted here.


And now we come in a full circle.
Fakku. Pays. It's. Artists.
And why would you not want to support that? Many artists get nothing for anything they create, but they still make tons of new content. Now it's the time to show them that we fans support them and want them to continue to work on. I don't know about you, but of I were a ero artist and I had my mangas day in and day out being profited without me seeing a check better believe people are going to caught L more than united States airliners.

How about doing some research before posting? You've embarrassed yourself by making this thread.

I have no idea where you get because a doujin is parodying under fair use it can't be legally sold for profit? Have you never seen a mainstream porn movie? True the US copyright owners of the IP of the parody can sue but it never happens. None of the doujins fakku publishes are parodies. SHIKIMAYA is the ones doing the licensing of parody doujinshi. The one Fakku does are originals. SHIKIMAYA use the store to sell them. Just like others aka yurism, 2d market, Lana Rain and Prismblush


Plus artists get a share of the licensing deal. The artists are getting paid for the subs and books or do you think them creating 'thank you' drawings, redrawing and add new content to the books and coming to meet fans in the US under fakku invite, autographing and meeting Jacob is just a con perpetrated by the illuminati? Do you think people like Maeda, Bosshi or pyon-Kti would do all of that without getting paid? Even Shiden Akira drew something just for mega milk.

Hell they post on the comments and their twitters thanking Jacob.

Shhhhhhhhhh you're not fitting into his oppressed fair use narrative.

Your ignorance actually makes me embarrassed to be a human being, because on some biological level we share the same DNA structure...

As for artists recieveing payment and supporting FAKKU here are some tweets directly from the artists you so much want to receive money:

How in the world can you say they aren't getting paid, do you have some close personal relationship with a Hentai artist who is currently on FAKKU and has received no componsation? NO YOU HAVE NO DEEP KNOWLEDGE ON THIS, YOU ARE JUST ACTING LIKE A FOOLISH CHILD WHO LEARNED THAT NOT ALL THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE.



Yes for the 4 billionth time FAKKU pays artists in Japan for the work they publish here



This has to be the funniest part cause they have SO MANY BOOKS,Fakku Books where they work with the artist to reproduce them in English to be sold outside of Japan. So you wanted books to buy there are your books, so put up or shut up buy the books like you have been saying you wanted.



This is great you reported FAKKU to get them in trouble and shut down, so if FAKKU isn't doing what they say they are (paying artists) they get shut down, and when FAKKU does NOT shut down it's doors because they violated NO laws and there is NO legal action that can be taken against them you will have to learn that you are just wrong.

Just so ignorant and wrong...

Doesn't matter. You can't file a claim unless you are the right owner or agent. The most it will do is trash bin. FTC doesn't do copyrights.

@zandra

I normally would never do this, but I feel so strongly about this and how you're wrong on such a fundamental level that I must warrant replying to this thread.

You, my unrepentant fool, are completely wrong in every regard to this issue.
You're throwing your toys out of the pram because you can't get your way and get free Hentai off Fakku anymore.

How can such a deluded mindset believe that it is right for a hardworking artist to not receive the royalties that they duly deserve?
They work incredibly hard at their craft, only to see illegal scans of it online. It must be so demoralizing.

That's why I'll support Fakku as much as possible to ensure that the men and women who create the products we like get the recognition and the money that they deserve.

And a quick note about the DMCA and FTC. You have to be the rights holder to file a claim and I'm quite certain that you are not.
FTC has nothing to do with claims.
Edit: This point was initially clarified by animefreak_usa

Please educate yourself about the proceedings that are involved before you go throwing unwarranted slander at undeserving people.

Have a good day. Goodbye.

Holy shit, when the idiots attack vol3.

You really shouldn't preach copywrite and report to people if you have literally no idea how any of it works. You're just going to get an email from dmca telling you to fuck off basically.

It's apparent you've never heard of the term publisher. Rip in peas kiddo. You're mad over the transition, and pulled a reason out of your arse

Harsh reality 101: just because something is against the rules doesn't mean you can't do it anyway. Some sites *side-eyes YouTube* either don't bother to look up copyrights, or can't because the cost of verifying all the complaints they get is prohibitive. So they err on the side of caution and take down everything they get complaints about, then tell the poster to call a lawyer and hash it out with the complainer themselves.

Not that any of this matters, because A) OP has no intention of filing a DMCA takedown, as he's obviously just an amatuerish little troll hoping to get a reaction. B) Even if he DID file a takedown, FAKKU is a privately-owned site with rights to everything it posts, not a file-hosting service like YouTube that can be easily intimidated, and C) even ignoring A and B, what would he get out of it? I won't name names or post links, but if he seriously wants his porn-manga for free, there are places to get it. FAKKU isn't going to be blackmailed or bullied into shutting down its' business, and actually calling the law to shut it down serves no purpose except petty malice.

Heh, you can't file a complaint with the Digital Millinium Copyright Act. It isn't an organization like the FTC. But I don't think that is the point really.

Everyone is doing a great job of defending Fakku, but Trolls are just gonna Troll.
