National Contact Registry is Illegally Publishing Our Content


This is an open letter, as they say, to the National Contact Registry, remember them? By the subject, we kinda give away our position, but hey, read on anyway if you're feeling read...y. -KV


Dear National Contact Registry,

It appears you have bought the domain "www.theliterarybrothel.com." We owned that website but months ago. We called it The Literary Brothel.

Now, however, The Literary Brothel is no longer there. It is here. Right here. The place where you are reading these words. Yes, in your computer. Hello!

While you have the right to buy our domain name - though we built the reputation of the site - you do not have the right to publish our content.

In other words, this is a cease and desist order. Take it all down or fear the reaper.

I mean, the consequences.

You have been warned.

Sincerely (or something),
The Literary Brothel

ps. Sure, we could contact you directly, but what fun would that be? Seriously, just take down our content so we don't have to contact you at:
National Contact Registry
3033 Excelsior Blvd
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55416
United States
+1.6129158834

Thx!

They've done the same to me and when I suggested they had to remove my content, he said to hire a lawyer. How does a class action suit sound? He's counting on people not fighting back.

I just created a site about them and posted about your story as well.

http://nationalcontactregistrystolemysite.com/

(Long name but using their name in the URL ensures it will show up in search results if somebody searches for them.)

Holy smokes. Thanks Shannon. I'll post about this shortly.
