Old Fort Western sent me a threatening email over a video I posted on YouTube. They want me to take down a video that I made that is obviously ridiculous; and keep in mind that all of the words and images are my own. Am I still in America?! This is absurd. Here is the email:
Dear Mr. Corcoran:
Recently, browsing YouTube, we came across a very poor video of Old Fort Western. We did not give our permission for this to be posted to YouTube. Your information concerning the haunting of Old Fort Western by Benedict Arnold is completely untrue and we would appreciate the removal of this video. This video violates our policy of photography and videography for commercial/amusement purposes and you did not seek permissions from us to post this video. We would like this video removed from your personal website as well. I quote from the YouTube Terms of Use, "E. You agree to not engage in the use, copying, or distribution of any of the Content other than expressly permitted herein, including any use, copying, or distribution of User Submissions of third parties obtained through the Website for any commercial purposes." YouTube has been notified about the inappropriate use of this video and we have requested that they pull this video immediately. We hope that you will remove this material from your website at once.
Thank you.
Regards,
