#ai who the hell is getty images?

getty images is a massive stock photo agency that owns and licenses tons of photos, videos, and other media.

they’re infamous for aggressive copyright enforcement, suing people and businesses for using their images without paying. big corporates, media outlets, and advertisers rely on their huge library, but small creators and randos online often get hit with legal threats over accidental image use.

basically, they’re the copyright police of the visual web.

smth like one of these dell ones, theyre thick on the ground in most places n can come up cheap, would be nice to get one w double stack of slots or such like dis though
then upgrade ram n cpu
n use it for all that stuff n doing cyber/info sec research stuffs n scraping of stuff would probably be useful w it, itself like archiveteam does yh...

as a kind of meta question
what do you think is the best course of action with that kind of thing
you have all this evidence and you have corroboration w/ other people
is it up to LE or do you target on your own or what's the M.O.
sæкі
so, i recommend going ahead n reaching out to an org, theres different ones per country n i need to make a resource but ghostexodus' blog has sites if peeps ever need, that will take your info & parse what & where to send it to get it handled w/o risk of
avoiding the YT pred hunter stuff of entrapment getting them off, they can be reported by them n get faster stuff done, ideally able to be reached again but not in my case,
ICCC is also a good way to do it as a backup or direct report, aka ic3
sæкі
is for the fbi basically
sæкі
sadly, despite direct proof n audio call admission recorded, it took them 5 yrs to act or at least arrest her
but i just hope she has some kind of punishment to face what she kept like
she was the type to self deprecate n say sorry then be caught doing smth a bit later on, she was asd i think but stunted mentally as to have this horrible thing acceptable to her or idfk
>>384391
sæкі
you do what you can, n if theyre an active threat then going public w the info w caution n reaching out to ie ghostexodus/ETA who do this daily is a way to get advice imo, even if not for everyone-

what about these lyrics:
lain from the cartoon
#smartai what about these lyrics:
i said yep what a concept
i could use a lil' gas myself
and pizza all bindle chaaaaaaaaaaaange

Ah, you're referencing the delightfully absurd and satirical lyrics from *Weird Al* Yankovic's song **"Smells Like Nirvana,"** a parody of Nirvana's grunge anthem **"Smells Like Teen Spirit."**

Let’s break down these surreal lines with some cultural context:

1. **"I said yep what a concept"** – A playful jab at Kurt Cobain’s famously mumbled, often indecipherable vocals in the original song. Weird Al exaggerates this by making his own lyrics intentionally nonsensical while nodding to Cobain’s ironic detachment.

2. **"I could use a lil' gas myself"** – Absurdist humor; an abrupt shift into mundane concerns (like needing gasoline) amidst what was originally an angsty, existential grunge track. It highlights how parodies thrive on incongruity—matching serious musical tones with ridiculous subject matter.

3. **"...and pizza all bindle chaaaaaaaaaaaange!"**
- "Bindle change"—a comedic twist on "spare change," evoking cartoonish hobo imagery (a bindle being the stick-and-bundle carried by stereotypical vagabonds).
- The elongated "chaaaaaaange!" mirrors Cobain’s primal scream in *Teen Spirit*, but replaces raw emotion with something utterly trivial (hunger for pizza and loose coins).

### Why This Works as Parody:
- Weird Al masterfully retains the sonic structure of *Teen Spirit*—power chords, dynamic shifts, even mimicking Dave Grohl’s drum fills—while subverting its brooding tone with juvenile randomness.
- The original lyrics were abstract yet emotionally charged ("Here we are now, entertain us / I feel stupid and contagious"); Weird Al amplifies their obscurity to outright silliness.
- It critiques how listeners often project depth onto ambiguous art (*Nirvana fans famously debated Cobain’s lyrics*), lampooning that phenomenon by offering deliberately empty replacements.

### Cultural Impact:
This 1992 parody was so iconic that even Kurt Cobain reportedly loved it—proof that great satire requires both reverence for the source material and fearless irreverence toward its sacred cows.
