then basically, 9gag (a website) has no right to "claim" such memes. xD
even though we all know 4chan started the whole idea of memes. xD

does 9gag make a profit?

[Ashy]

memes have been around longer than 4chan :P

but yeah i agree with chocobo, i suppose the big companies dont really have the time to chase up all the individuals :s

and yes, but its an image sharing website. not just a meme only website, they cant control all of whats posted on it. its like the funnyjunk vs the oatmeal thing all over again :s

I'm not sure about 9gag. I left it when it all didn't make sense.

[littl3chocobo]

actually sometimes the copyright owners will knowingly look away from people profiting if it helps get the brand out

[Ashy]

Especially small companies, I know the guy from Endless Origami doesn't mind his stuff being all over Reddit. It's how I found his site :P

[littl3chocobo]

though things like that end up fucking over the owners if they try to put a case against selling without royalties paid
