iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I've hit a few dead ends every time I look into the legal route, its just an intimidating process and something that looks to be incredibly expensive even if i were to obtain a trademark

I've come to learn that roles lile this typically have to be filled by those in the actors union, else they explain why they couldn't use a union member for the role. I'm sure there's still overlap there, but it'd at least rule out folks like me (though not our suits)

Is there any way to import Rappa plush to the US? 😩 I've never seen such a hard to find commodity in the online era lol

Literally! If the weather is nice apparently that means they are out

You're back! What region are you in?

I have no ill will against the owner, I appreciated her apology and glad that she got the situation explained and sorted out with the con. Nowhere along the line was the makers name listed, nor did I know it before making this post

Disagree, this behavior isnt condemned enough which is why I routinely come across people who "do not know" that its a character belonging to someone else rather than a Chinese bootleg. I've seen these bootlegs for years now, the lesson needs to be grounded in. Obviously I knew you didnt make it

To be entirely fair I have no idea who you guys are, so this couldnt really be avoided. I wasn't at the con and people were just taking stealthily taken photos

And each filing is expensive. I would be in the hole tackling all the bivalo listings unless I recieved some serious backpay from what they had earned

bsky.app/profile/plai... Hopefully handled now

Nice to hear that staff handled the guy! I cant believe it came from another furry, so lame :(

I appreciate you coming forward with an explanation, it might explain why it only came up on sunday. I'll try to spread the word that it was not a malicious act, though I do hope that it will lead people to be more careful with this sort of issue in the future now that they know what happened

You can copyright a character and administer takedown notices in a case by case basis, but its expensive and the necessity of involving a lawyer to some degree has pushed me away from doing it every time I begin to explore. Honestly its a big burden for a personal hobby design

It appears to be what happened, according to the vendor in another comment

From what I've been reading online it seems that there a lot more people abusing the ease and credibility of the system lately, making it more difficult for those who legitimately need accessibility and services who rely on trust from the general public. Hopefully not fake/unnecessary

Doubling down jeez. Not good
