So on one thread this guy is selling stuff from a dutch website with 30%-50% discount by scamming the site, on this thread he's selling access to a database that's not his to sell because some of his skiddie friends gave him acces to it.

This forum is walking into a liability nightmare if it continues to accept this type of sales on the marketplace after being warned by the users about them.

I've looked at the link provided by Amanda.  As promised, I will not share the link, but I will comment on the contents.

Every result of any query I run has been published in the past.  Each result is shown in XML format, and has a newspaper title, date of publication, city, state, and country of publication, etc, listed as variables in XML format.  It appears as though there is a vulnerability on the hosting site that allows any person to run queries on their database by simply directing themselves to the appropriate URL.

This is simply a collection of older (and some newer) published articles, digitized using OCR technology.

Rereading your original post, I see that you only say the articles have not been published on the internet, not necessarily a claim of never being published in any medium.  I did find that some of them have not been published on the internet before.  I would caution anyone that reposting these on the internet would constitute a copyright violation, not only of the hosting site (who probably shares all of these to anyone with a membership), but also of the original publishers of the articles.

I indeed never claimed they were never seen before.. But they're not published on the internet, I haven't been able to find even one (which I tried to explain that guy that didnt listen.. being on the internet doesnt mean its published there)
Well, in my opinion, being on the internet = published.  But, I see what you're getting at: the only place these articles are available is within a membership area, not in anything open to the general public.  If the articles were to be "fixed up" by removing the OCR mistakes, they could be republished and indeed unique on the internet.  However, it would still violate the copyright of the original publisher.

It's possible that one could get away with publishing the articles of obscure and out-of-business newspapers or magazines.  If the publisher went out of business years ago, it's likely that no one from said publisher is looking for copyright violations.

obviously i know what im talking about since ive found all of your "disused articles". i've proven that they arn't what you say they are, so in fact your trying to make money by reselling content that you claim very little people have access to, yet i found the easily online.

"Chicago where he is working on aPhD TORONTO" found on this page:

http://www.newspaperarchive.com/Content/Sites.aspx?Site=55759&cboCountry=co2&cboState=st47&cboCity=ci3299

Still... if someone else has access to them, why are they appearing on a website that archives newspapers... showing they are old articles, and not disused articles.

Have a little look thought your articles, and i bet you will realise someones having you on Wink

You said its not used anywhere, then say "there's a high chance its used"

No, I am not the only one, but this ain't a public database either. It's used by reporters and other people to store their articles. So yes, there's a small chance you'll find a used article.


How is my quote (the 2nd) saying that it's not used anywhere?

Fair enough.  So it's something that a person couldn't just go out and buy access to, normally, but something that only reporters or other publication-related personnel might have access to?

Also, does it violate any copyright laws to publish these articles, or are the articles deemed "copyright free" until published once they are placed in this database?

I'm not sure to be honest. I don't think they're protected by copyright but don't pin me on that, I have no clue.

**update** : just see you removed the new post with another example.. not looking good for you.

Yes, because I realized I took the new one from the same page because I didn't refresh.
