And to be clear, I don't object to Prince laying legal claim to his likeness and all that but fair use definitely has to come into this because those photo threads are harmless and not one person in them is doing anything harmful to Prince by posting a picture and then praising him! I seriously want to know how Ben or the site owes Prince anything for that. Videos is a whole different matter that I'm sure we have less of a claim to post but still. Nobody here is making money off either of these things.

And to be clear, I think that most likely this will turn out to be an excessive and even frivolous claim on P.'s part and he would most likely lose in court.

What about the Google and Amazon ads?

The more I think about this issue, the more it angers me.

But I think that all of my thoughts and emotions concerning it have already been posted here by myself and others.

But I will state once more, that if Prince and his lawyers go through with their threats, I will lose what little respect I have left for him, and will no longer bother with Prince the man nor his music.

Is anybody even clicking on them? lol

If so, isn't that for Prince to take up with them? I am so not a lawyer lol

since when did stooping to the same level as fools become an attractive thing to do?
