And the version with closed Captions:
Are you ready to pay? This is where you would have begun paying for the stolen merchandise at "Inside Out".
Note the bottom of the page. He even included a copyright notice.
On October 17, an internet friend told me about Rodrigo's site featuring "Street Speak".
I immediately called
Rodrigo on the phone. He admitted his guilt, and promised he would take it all down.
I told him him he
had 10 hours
to do it.
But it took him over 3 days to take it down, hoping he could still somehow get away with his extremely
crass plagiarism. It was only after he
received many email messages from
an enraged community of friends and colleagues,
that Rodrigo took the stolen material off his site.
spontaneous outburst of indignation reflects the future of the internet, and fair practices in our global community.
Thanks again to everyone,
