Tumblr support just emailed me about a copyright violation!

Never had that problem before, but honestly I’m just kind of shocked that after yesterday anybody would complain about copyright violation.

But you know, whatevs. Das coo brah.

It’s like rain on Tumblr’s wedding day.

Tumblr is probably responding to a DMCA request filed by the copyright owner. That’s how it’s supposed to work. The point of all the protests is that this system is already in place, so we don’t need new laws that would shut down whole websites. It wasn’t a protest in favor of copyright violation.
