Congratulations Deafskullo!
You've successfully hijacked the deaf vlog world!
With 9 out of 10 video blog comments being about the mystery character known as Deafskullo, its safe to say that a witch hunt has started for the individual who is behind the Deafskullo mask.
People have been losing sleep, burning a lot of tobacco, and pointing fingers at anyone who they think could be playing this mean game to the deaf vlog world.
The ASL deaf culture hardliners seem to have given Deafskullo an immense amount of power and this opens the possibility of copycats playing the same gimmicks to destroy the ASL deaf community.
The best way to deal with Deafskullo and the likes of it is to IGNORE IT.
And a big lesson is going to come out of this.

Tayler was supposed to ban vlogs that have masks or no facial identity.
ReplyDeleteHow did Pax and others get around Tayler's rules?
Is there a doublestandard at deafvideo.tv?
That's noted, bit I'll leave it up to Tayler to make the determination on which ID's are worth keeping at Deafvideo.tv and which ID's are to be discarded.

According to the California court case ticketmaster vs tickets.com, this page does not violate copyright.

Further, hyperlinking does not itself involve a violation of the Copyright Act (whatever it may do for other claims) since no copying is involved. The customer is automatically transferred to the particular genuine web page of the original author. There is no deception in what is happening. This is analogous to using. a library's card index to get reference to particular items, albeit faster and more efficiently.
I properly hyperlinked using youtube's embedding code.
