    Influencers are sales people. They are there to sell you things, it’s a job as an ongoing infomercial. All you are doing is is listening to advertising, repackaged as some ‘expert’ or ‘guru’ who claims to know some special information that they are sharing with you. It’s an Ad.

    Interesting. Lots of craziness here, but the plaintiff used a DCMA to strike the defendant’s videos because of “likeness”. Just for that, I’m pro-defendant, will be interesting to see what happens.

      I was pro-defendant before the end of the first paragraph. Someone suing someone else for ‘stealing’ their ‘minimalist aesthetic’ deserves to lose and get a lesson from the ol’ clue by four.

          Yes. “I was pro-defendant before the end of the first paragraph.” = “I agreed with this position before the end of the first section of words”

          Without something to negate that statement, the statement’s meaning is exactly what it says.
