Non-Urban Music Prince vs Fansites

[Rukas]

Prince is not banning free speech, he's trying to regulate material that legally belongs to him.

How do photos of peoples Prince inspired tattoos legally belong to him?

He never asked for those specifically to be removed. There was a wide criteria of stuff that he wanted removed, I believe it may have been anything with the symbol on it which is his copyright. People's symbol tattoos obviously fall into that category.

It's not like he sat there looking at the "Show Your Prince Tattoos" thread and phoned his lawyers

"These motherfuckaz have tattoos with my symbol on it, get em!"

That's what I mean about the media and shit confusing the issue.
