If this wing design pops up on any store besides mine, it’s an illegal copy.
For months now, overseas factories have been making rip-offs of my Titania fairy wing design as flapping wings, & they're showing up all over the web, undercutting me.
Them making flapping wings itself is not the issue, the issue is they're ripping off this specific design. Jordan and I both knew that eventually, big factories would make cheap versions of them. But they're ripping off my *specific* original wing designs to do it.
Color variations don’t make it legal. Changing it 10% doesn’t make it legal, that's a myth. I'm the ONLY legit seller of this wing design.
I filed with USCBP to stop imports at the border, but I don’t know if they’ll all be caught.
I send removal notices, but anyone dealing with this knows certain sites are terrible at actually doing anything. Even when they do, these companies then file FALSE counterclaims, claiming rights they don't have, which means it can then go right back up within 10 business days unless I get a court order.
The new Copyright Claims Board means we can now file 'Misrepresentation of a Claim' to fight some of them, but it still costs us. It adds up.
I know the hot topic right now is AI art, but this actual blatant type of theft has been an even bigger problem without comparable media coverage or outcry.
The real problem is a broken system.
We need our education systems to teach about internet etiquette & copyright law, and better systems in place to protect us.
DMCA laws need to be updated to better hold huge platforms accountable. They ignore us too often.
Hell, maybe they can use AI to create an automatic detection & royalty system any time our designs & images are posted elsewhere online, wouldn't that be nice?
Or divert funds from counterfeits to the original artist?
YT does it with musicians' music, why not visual art?
Please spread the word, don’t buy counterfeits! And if you haven't yet, see my 'Copyright' Highlight.
The spread of copies of my photos without credit perpetuates the problem, small infringements often lead to more harmful ones.

last week i went to a job fair that was like a military veterans priority sort of event and damn there were so many guns in that building even i was getting a little sweaty. like there was at least one semiauto rifle for every three attendees in a building with maybe 2000 people total. there were booths for several local police departments but it was incredibly cool seeing separate booths for both ICE and USCBP. i love my normal and good country so much <3

Гибридный Glock для гражданских
Glock 47 был представлен в 2019 году, когда принимался на вооружение Министерством внутренней безопасности США (Department of Homeland Security — DHS) для погранично-таможенной службы США (United States Customs and Border Protection/USCBP). На протяжении почти четырёх лет G47 оставался доступным только для DHS/ USCBP и вот, теперь он предлагается гражданским стрелкам.... Читать дальше »

Excerpts:
The US says more than 1.7 million migrants were detained along its border with Mexico in the past 12 months - the highest number ever recorded.
More than one million of them were expelled to Mexico or their native countries, according to data from US Customs and Border Protection.
Agents apprehended people from more than 160 countries.
...
Mr Biden promised a more humane immigration policy than his predecessor Donald Trump, but the US-Mexico border has been engulfed in crisis for much of the Democrat's nine-month-old presidency.
A BBC investigation of the Fort Bliss detention centre in Texas earlier this year found reports of sexual abuse, Covid and lice outbreaks, hungry children being served undercooked meat and sandstorms engulfing the desert tent camps where the young people were being held.

Repost @ctvnews Surveillance video released by U.S. Border Patrol shows a group of people trying to enter Vermont from Quebec by driving across a library lawn and nearly hitting another car on July 4. The Haskell Free Library and Opera house was built straddling the United States-Canada border in the early 20th century. The seven occupants of the vehicle were apprehended and returned to Canada.

After 5 months, USCBP FINALLY signed off and allowed me to fully register my 560SEL with CA DMV. She's fully legal and finally got her custom plates. More to come! via /r/Autos

Attacks on Science by the Trump Administration
The Trump Administration Kept Secrets on Border Wall Harms to the Environment
What happened: Officials from the Department of Interior (DOI) stripped language that was written by federal scientists on a key environmental impacts letter to the US Customs and Border Protection (USCBP) about the US-Mexico border wall. The deleted sections, written by federal biologists and wildlife managers from the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), brought up scientifically-valid concerns about the potential impact of the border wall on endangered species whose populations are located along the border.
Why it matters: The protection of endangered species requires science, indeed, the consideration of science in listing endangered species is legally mandated by the Endangered Species Act. The exclusion of scientific evidence will likely put endangered species at risks of further decline. Furthermore, the deletion of scientific language sets up a dangerous precedent that it is all right to silence and censor federal scientists. Excluding scientists and their work from the policy making process leads to governmental decisions that are not evidence-based and therefore less likely to effectively protect the health of the public and our environment.

How War in Ukraine Revealed the Hypocrisy of US Border Policy
The arrival of refugees from Ukraine and Russia to the US-Mexico border reveals the arbitrariness of US border policy: While certain asylum seekers receive special treatment, others are forced to wait indefinitely.
