This administration as DESTROYED this country from the inside out. Yeah, Bush had his issues but the bullshit that has gone on since Ovomit took office defies logic and common sense and violates every part of the constitution by using Orwellian tactics on us....

How does a gov. agency get to copyright anything? Are they a private and/or commercial entity?

Re: NSA Using Copyright Claims To Crush Free Speech
It has been illegal to use seals or logos of government agencies for a long time. We would have like to use some of them on our website over a dozen years ago, and that was the policy then so we did not use them.


From the USA.gov website:

"You cannot use U.S. government trademarks or the logos of U.S. government agencies without permission. For example, you cannot use an agency logo or trademark on your social media page."
[link to www.usa.gov]

So the guys should have done some homework and changed that seal a little bit so it was not a copy of the NSA logo, then they would have been alright.

Nothing will change as it's happening incrementally to us over a long period of time. We all know that it's not "This Administration" actually running things, it's just this administration that they've used to put all of these things in place. The next president will just further the agenda of eroding our rights because the money masters and social engineer's are moving us to a destination...

Perhaps I did not clarify myself enough but since 08, this has really moved in a very bad direction as far as our rights/freedoms as they have really put the agenda on steroids...

To be fair, if the jackass had made his own logo that was similar, there would be no claim. This is no different than someone using the Chicago Bulls logo on cheap shirts to make a buck.

If you use someone elses intellectual property a copyright injunction can be filed.

That being said...I still think it's funny.

You're the jackass. As Ben said in the video, parody is protected free speech and is not a copyright violation.

It's that simple.

I was a former college newspaper editor and journalist. Regarding the issue at hand, I concur with everything Ben said.

Re: NSA Using Copyright Claims To Crush Free Speech
bahahah yeah right

and how do they plant to enforce such

they are broke ass jokes, they cant even enforce shit inside their own organization

it is against the constitution of the us for any origination religion or agency to conspire to take rights away from Americana citizens

i have an intellectual right to speak with words

they do not own this

copyrights are only good when the user intends to capitalize on the said copy right

if there is no money to be made and its just for edu and fun

they have no claim to words being copywrighted

the nsa is a joke ass, broke ass, bunch of Nagas Stupid Assholes

that was for fun and edu pour-pusses only......

put that^^^^ in ya sigs and they can doo nothing about what ya post and the words ya use

just like the you-tube vids do...a disclaimer does wonders...
