Copyright infringement
Ok, I got one copyright infringement for a charm I had no idea was copyrighted. (I bought it from an Etsy supply shop in the UK).
One year later, I just got another copyright infringement for a different charm again that I bought in a bead supply shop in the UK. I don't at all agree it is a copy of someones work and I'm not taking it further, but nevertheless it's still a strike on my account.
So what now? One more and I'm gone?! Or is it three strikes and on the 4th you're gone. How can anyone rely on this as an income with the threat of another strike. It would just take one bogus one even, which is what the last one was. It's a really horrible thought.
Does anyone really know how many strikes for copyright infringement and your shop is shut? Do you get a final message from Etsy saying you have one last chance? Please could anyone shed some light as this is my only income for now.
Thanks.
