Interesting.

Apparently, someone, perhaps the real Emily Kate, signed up and is confronting the Free Jinger posters. This is the only post so far.

Hi, I got in. I was trying to sign up using Roboform, but nothing happened when I pressed "Join Yuku." So, I tried typing everything in the old fashioned way and it worked. Anyway, what information do you need in order for you to stop stalking my family and being obsessed with us?

    A: ALL OF IT!!

  • I told you Hmo. I tried to add her on fb, but I got scared and deleted the friend request. Then I reopened my firstname cantwait account and friended her there, but I got scared and deleted everything. I don't know what kind of crazy she's capable of. Also, friending someone just so I could mock their lifestyle and gag over their pictures felt wrong.

  • Second post, someone created a mirror site for her blog to prevent the penny going to EK.  i don't know what question from Mary K she is referring to, I couldn't find it...

     

    The Under1000BrainCells is copyright infringement and is being reported. I would take it down if I were you.

    As far as I can tell, what you want is for me to parent and live my life by your standards in order for you to leave me alone. Not going to happen. Parental rights still exist in this country and as I parent, I have a right to refuse treatment, which is very different from medical neglect.

    With privacy, there are many bloggers out there who reveal much more that I do. Fine, continue stalking me and feel self-righteous about it too.

    Mary K, yes this is me, but I'm not publishing that question.

  • Jojo, I assume someone commented on her blog to ask if the FreeJinger EmilyKate was really her.

  • Labels: crazy, Emily, poor kids

    these really need to be more specific.

  • I'm pretty sure the mirror site doesn't count as infringement when it clearly states where the material comes from, and links to the originating site.

    Not to mention, I haven't seen any copyright notices on EK's blog - are blogs subject to copyright law when no one's made any effort to copyright them?

    yes.  it's copyrighted whether it has a notice or not.

  • It does have a notice. Bottom right under the sidebar.

    wow, they've really gone the extra mile:

    I'm amazed it took someone that long to do that.  Now everyone can comment freely on her stupidity without being moderated.

    Dear EK,

    You are acting as if you have a child that has crooked teeth and then chose to refuse braces. Refusing treatment that leads to hindering/reversing a child's development is, in fact, medical neglect. (I.E. reverting back to before potty training, speech issues, etc.)

    P.S. *Junkpunch*

  • It's not copyright infringement if it's clearly satirizing the original piece. Which it is. She needs to worry more about her family than people picking apart her blog.
  • i would argue that it is neither satire nor parody.  it is a direct copy of the content -- it does not make fun of it in any way; only the comments do.
