404 Media

Luigi Mangione fan art, merch, and photos are getting hit with bogus copyright takedown requests all over the internet. Artists and journalists affected. Very difficult to tell who is doing it, but one company says they received a request from United Healthcare:

404 Media · Copyright Abuse Is Getting Luigi Mangione Merch Removed From the InternetArtists, merch sellers, and journalists making and posting Luigi media have become the targets of bogus DMCA claims.

@404mediaco Someone tell UnitedHealth they don’t automatically have copyright over killing people, as much as they might be an industry leader in the business.

@404mediaco

ignore their illegal suppression of our rights to free speech.

@404mediaco Now we need a song by Luigi and some merchandising with t-shirts, mugs and stickers, just to annoy a little 😅

@bughuntercat @404mediaco
Hey, lets show the #ToddlerAndChief how to REALLY grift! If it makes money he'll be on 5th Ave. in a flash!

@404mediaco "But there are powerful tools built in against frivolous take-downs!" they said, leading up to the bill being passed. "It will never be used just to silence people!"

@404mediaco Everybody knows it's Mangione who owns UnitedHealthcare, and not the other way around. :p

@404mediaco@mastodon.social
What is that supposed to mean? Whoever killed your CEO became your Intellectual Property??? /s

@404mediaco @inthehands how can you make a valid copyright claim without stating who you are and how you are linked to the media?

@404mediaco I'm here for the memes, I'll be honest every person upset about Luigi is a clown and probably has money.
