Since I don't particularly want a penis picture on my site anyway, I responded to him stating that I would remove it if he either provides evidence for his contention that the subject is a minor, or if he just asks nicely for it to be removed. I'm still stunned by what happened next ... Today he[2] sent a DMCA takedown notice to abuse@[various domains], claiming that the picture violates his copyrights. So wait a minute ... yesterday the image was revolting and illegal kiddie porn worthy of FBI enforcement, and today he is the copyright holder for the photo and entitled to "$150,000 for each infringement"?!!Perhaps he is confusing the picture in the archive with a picture he has copyright on which actually is a picture of a minor's penis. This is the only interpretation of his messages that I can think of that makes them consistent. I suggest combining his suggestions by leaving the picture in the archive and reporting him to the FBI for investigation as a possible child pornographer. I suppose it is also possible that the picture is of a minor's penis, and he has copyright on it--if you assume this then you could also, at your option, remove the picture and report him to the FBI.
You missed what I thought was the most obvious interpretation. The picture is of his own penis and he is a minor. I doubt you can be considered a child pornographer if you are, in fact, a child. -Jason _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
