Can you shut down someone else’s blog?
-
Someone keeps threatening us that they will shut down our blog, JUST because we have something on our site, and they have one too. Is that even possible?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
If it is copyrighted by them, then they could file a DMCA violation notice and staff would likely make you remove it. If it isn’t something that they actually created, then they have no rights to it.
-
Well we made ours on our own (its a tool bar from conduit) and have had it since before their site was even out.

Threats and demands to shut down blogs happen all the time.
Staff set the rules[1]. Staff decide when they have been broken. Staff decide what action to take. No one else.
Staff are not there to settle arguments between bloggers.
[1] One of those rules is, it’s your responsibility to make sure your content is legal and doesn’t infringe copyright.
