A copyright holder who is so fanatic against fair-use that they have gone beyond copyright nazi when striking users for so much as mentioning their intellectual property.
Named after the Necrons from Warhammer.
A Copyright Nazi will strike your Youtube for showing a
clip of their show in one of your videos.
A Copyright Necron will strike your
Twitter for posting a
meme, GIF, or having a profile picture of their intellectual property.
Copyright Necrons are more cold blooded than (
C) Nazis & really
don't care who they take down in their purges.
Copyright Nazis are asshole narcissists, but at least are pragmatic enough to realize they need a fanbase to keep their income. They'
ll allow fans to cosplay or make fanart of their characters.
This form of IP fanaticism goes beyond Copyright Nazism because the original Nazism had some form of populism & mob mentality backing it. But Copyright Necrons are ghouls who really
don't care who they piss off.
Warhammer Necrons roam the
galaxy to purge all living things, believing if they extract enough biomass they will become flesh again.
Copyright Necrons roam the
internet, purging all AMVs, fanart, cosplay, &
memes that reference their copyrighted materials, believing it will make them the most
money.
Examples of Copyright Nazis include Disney, Toei animation, Hasbro, VIACOM & Tommy Wiseau.
Examples of Copyright Necrons include Shueisha & Camden Lamont (1999 creepypasta)
RoseScape got striked by Shueisha for posting a Dragonball GIF! They're not mere copyright Nazis like Toei, they've become copyright necrons!
Sorry
bro but even a massive boycott won't work. Shueisha doesn't value it's public image at all, they're copyright necrons who would burn down their corporation to purge the
internet of their copyrighted material.
Those copyright necrons suspended my
Twitter account just for cosplaying as a character they own!
