Bob-O that is the exact same response I got.

My lawyer will have to deal with it Monday!

I at the very least want the picture of my daughter and the dog removed!

I have posted this information on website as well to encourage anyone else who may not know this has happened to check to see if their dogs info and pics have been stolen!

Yeah, really. Clown.

WE don't have to prove copyright ownership. THEY have to prove permissions granted to use the material.

We took the photos, the original digital files are on our machines, EXIF data exists as do date and time stamps on the original files.

Let THEM bring forth whatever it is they have.

Does kee's own his server, has anyone tried to find out?  Has anyone already been in touch with the server?

Does anyone have enough info to go to the U.S. Attorney General or his state AG ?

Hey...

I noticed that this thread seems to be on a "permanent bump" 

Not mirroring completely.  One of youngsters I posted a picture of here (about a month ago?) has no picture there.

How to Secure a Copyright

Copyright Secured Automatically upon Creation

The way in which copyright protection is secured is frequently misunderstood. No publication or registration or other action in the Copyright Office is required to secure copyright. (See following note.) There are, however, certain definite advantages to registration. See “Copyright Registration.”

Copyright is secured automatically when the work is created, and a work is “created” when it is fixed in a copy or phonorecord for the first time. “Copies” are material objects from which a work can be read or visually perceived either directly or with the aid of a machine or device, such as books, manuscripts, sheet music, film, videotape, or microfilm. “Phonorecords” are material objects embodying fixations of sounds (excluding, by statutory definition, motion picture soundtracks), such as cassette tapes, CDs, or LPs. Thus, for example, a song (the “work”) can be fixed in sheet music (“copies”) or in phonograph disks (“phonorecords”), or both. If a work is prepared over a period of time, the part of the work that is fixed on a particular date constitutes the created work as of that date.

As what Biff Tannen would say to those who he hates, "Butthead!".

Jesus Christ, I just love this "everything online is free for my taking" mentality.
