although they end up wanted to charge a few bucks if you want all of the info you're looking for.
It's good for 800 numbers, and if you want to find out if you're getting a solicitation

I received some Akeyo dances the same way others did, just randomly at clubs. when someone passes someone a gesture, or animation, or particle burst, or any neat feature to use, no one's first thought is "is this stolen" ... we all assume that if it was copy/trans it was legit .... we all also assumed that the world of Second Life would not allow exploits like this...
we were all sadly mistaken.
Personally, I don't need animations, I don't buy them.
Also, I am a reseller of Akeyo stuff (legitimately. I think Akeyo products are great, and I purchased their affiliate vendor pack so I could sell items at my own shop. hats, shoes, accessories.. not animations)
Up until this thread I haven't even thought about it.
... but point being, in the past, I've been handed folders of stuff to use at the clubs. I don't think the giver of the items or the receiver are ever aware these are bootlegged illegal versions. It's not something we think about when you see someone dancing, and you ask if it's a copy/trans, and then they hand it to you.
The main point to this whole debacle is that Linden Lab is not reacting, not keeping to the 'laws of their world they created'
and this is further reason that more people need to join on board on the class action suit against Linden Lab.
Linden Lab is profiting when people sell illegal bootleg goods on xstreetsl. This needs to be stopped. LL is enabling this crime to continue, and they are profiting from it.
....if LL allows a world (second life) where your intellectual property can be stolen, and they are profiting from it... maybe it's time to move onto another platform.

I in no way want to insinuate that this situation is not really happening.... but I think we need proof by knowing if this is happening on ALL animations and not just Akeyo. Akeyo's animations have been in full-perm form across the grid for a LONG TIME. Please, someone let us know if Akeyo is the only instance. ... because if it's just Akeyo brand, it's because Akeyo mistakenly has distributed full perm animations out, and not because someone has found a way to exploit.
