Also, it does not have to be done by LL, you can watermark your textures yourself, but if the textures were watermarked and the upload of these blocked afterwards then copybot as we know it would be seriously limited.
Watermarking textures would prevent someone from downloading a texture from SL and then uploading it as "creator".įurthermore, it would allow you to add a signature texture in your package that would mention "Kyrah Abattoir Original Product" and while it could be counterfeited it would not be as simple as downloading/uploading. However I don't think that using a modified client to export textures complies to the terms of service of Second Life, so it would be more efficient and legal to have an option that would make the texture public, with its key and rights to save to disk. You may have missed my edit where I said that watermarking could be optional. Nobody prevents you to file a DMCA when necessary. If someone use a modified client to export from SL content they made, they are within their right to do so, even if they aren't the original uploader. The tool isn't the problem, the intent is. It's not the act of copying SL content that is the problem, it is copying content without the permission of its creator.
A COPYBOT SL CACHE VIEWER FREE
People who use textures from free texture sites do not own the copyright on those textures and therefore have no right to dictate the usage for the copy they uploaded in SL.
There is a reason why the DMCA requires the copyright holder to file the notification themselves: We cannot assume that it is an illegitimate use until the copyright holder has stated that it is.Īnd that's just stupid, there is no reason to force people to duplicate textures/assets that are identical. Your solution ASSUMES that the original uploader not only has the right to upload that texture, but holds the copyright on said texture.
