Prince Estate Shuts Down Jay Z’s Cheap Bid To Buy Music Catalog For Far Less Than It Is Worth


 
Prince
 
This is a follow up to the October 31, 2016 article "Jay Z Tries To Defraud Prince Estate In Trying To Buy Music Catalog For Far Less Than It Is Worth." This week the Prince estate rejected Jay Z's financial offer of $40,000,000, which as stated on the site previously, is well below the value of the late singer's music catalog.
 
Jay Z has also been illegally streaming 15 Prince albums on his and Madonna's failed music streaming site Tidal. They did so after his death, which was illegal, dirty and sneaky on their part. Prince's estate is demanding payment for the unauthorized use of the music and rightfully so, as the illegal misconduct by graverobbers Jay Z and Madonna, defrauded the late singer's heirs out of money ($750,000).


Madonna (also known as Gollum), DeadMau5, Kanye West and Jay Z at Tidal's ill-fated launch

I don't know why underachieving, untalented people like Jay Z and Madonna keep stealing and or defraud real singers, songwriters and musicians out of their intellectual property. Unintelligent Jay Z and Madonna keep trying to take things that are way above them, that they did not and do not have the acumen to create.

Prior to Prince's death, he repeatedly stated he didn't want his work to be a part of the problem in pop culture. Prince was referencing the violent, misogynistic, depraved entertainment that is damaging people's minds and warping the public's outlook on life. I could just imagine the offensive madness Jay Z and Madonna would do with Prince's music if given the chance. It would be the equivalent of two monkeys taking a paint brush to a Picasso. They have no talent, sense of decency or decorum. People like them should not have the catalog.

Prince's Estate Is Not Happy With Jay Z

This might get ugly.
Published 22 hours ago - The moment that Jay Z had the opportunity to, he put a bid out of $40 million in hopes of getting his hands on Prince's vault of unreleased music, following the Purple One's untimely death earlier this year. Unfortunately, Hov lost the battle over Prince's highly coveted private collection of never-before-heard music, with Universal Music Publishing Group instead gaining control. That being said, the Tidal boss still has the rights to the music that was previously released, which was something that was mutually agreed upon between Jay Z and Prince while Prince was still with us. 

Prince's estate, however, doesn't agree with how the situation unfolded and is reportedly taking action against Hov's decision to allow the music to be streamed on Tidal. Your content will resume shortly. As reported by TMZ, the estate said they will not allow "Roc Nation to exploit any of the intellectual property assets of the Estate." 

According to the report, the estate is calling Jay's decision to have 15 albums from Prince's catalog available on Tidal as "unauthorized," which in short means that Hov may have to now pay up. Additionally, the estate reportedly is aware of the deal that Prince made with Jay Z, but is claiming they haven't yet found proof of a $750,000 payment to finalize the agreement....

U.S. National Security Agency Hacked And Top Secret Files Are Offered Up For Sale On The Black Market (NSA)


Barack Obama has engaged in more spying than any president in U.S. history. It has well and truly rankled feelings abroad in government circles and made American intelligence a greater global target.
 
A hacking group called "The Shadow Brokers" has hacked the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and swiped very important files. "The Shadow Brokers" are now offering vital NSA spy tools, such as original malware, spyware and virus programs authored by the agency, which is National Security Agency intellectual property, for illegal sale on black market websites. The files are being sold in two batches. 

Government hackers from world nations, as well as civilian computer hackers, are trying to get their hands on the exclusive NSA programs, manuals and other top secret agency files swiped in the unprecedented hack. Initial reports state the hackers in question are of Russian origin, but this has not been confirmed. In another recent unprecedented hack, Russian hackers hacked the Democratic National Party (DNC), copied and then released 20,000 embarrassing emails revealing hypocrisy among the liberals managing the political party, who are engaging in anti-religious prejudice, racism, xenophobia and homophobia.  

The NSA routinely hacks the computers of Americans, international citizens, world governments and global corporations, to steal data and proprietary information, such as top secret files and protected trade secrets. However, this marks the first major case of the NSA being hacked with their intellectual property swiped and financially exploited to the highest bidders. This data loss is quite damaging to the NSA, as their own tools are being used against American politicians, corporations and high profile silicon valley executives. The NSA shouldn’t be surprised, as this development, as they do this to others on a regular basis.

‘Shadow Brokers’ Claim to be Selling NSA Malware, in What Could Be Historic Hack

Programs posted online allow espionage on network devices
 
August 15, 2016 - A mysterious online group calling itself “The Shadow Brokers” is claiming to have penetrated the National Security Agency, stolen some of its malware, and is auctioning off the files to the highest bidder. The authenticity of the files cannot be confirmed but appear to be legitimate, according to security researchers who have studied their content. Their release comes on the heels of a series of disclosures of emails and documents belonging mostly to Democratic officials, but also to Republicans. Security researchers believe those breaches were perpetrated by agents thought to be acting on behalf of Moscow. 

The NSA did not answer Foreign Policy’s questions about the alleged breach on Monday. But if someone has managed to penetrate the American signals intelligence agency and post its code online for the world to see — and purchase — it would constitute a historic black eye for the agency. “It’s at minimum very interesting; at maximum, hugely damaging,” said Dave Aitel, a former NSA research scientist and now the CEO of the security firm Immunity. “It’ll blow some operations if those haven’t already been blown.” 

The files posted over the weekend include two sets of files. The hackers have made one set available for free. The other remains encrypted and is the subject of an online auction, payable in bitcoin, the cryptocurrency. That set includes, according to the so-called Shadow Brokers, “the best files.” If they receive at least 1 million bitcoin — the equivalent of at least $550 million — they will post more documents and make them available for free. 

The set of files available for free contains a series of tools for penetrating network gear made by Cisco, Juniper, and other major firms. Targeting such gear, which includes things like routers and firewalls, is a known tactic of Western intelligence agencies like the NSA, and was documented in the Edward Snowden files. Some code words referenced in the material Monday — BANANAGLEE and JETPLOW — match those that have appeared in documents leaked by Snowden. Security researchers analyzing the code posted Monday say it is functional and includes computer codes for carrying out espionage. 

The Equation Group is a collection of hackers whose activities were first documented by Kaspersky Lab, a Russian cybersecurity firm, last year. Kaspersky connected the activities of the Equation Group, which it called “a threat actor that surpasses anything known in terms of complexity and sophistication of techniques,” to operations carried out by U.S. intelligence. While Kaspersky did not outright attribute the Equation Group to the NSA, security researchers say in private that they believe it is a project of the American signals intelligence unit...

50 Cent Is About To Be 5 Cent As Bank Account Frozen After Electronic Company Wins $17 Million Against Him In Court


50 Cent

Rapper 50 Cent has been hit with a $17,200,000 court judgment, in favor of Sleek Audio. The company approached 50 Cent to front a line of headphones. 50 Cent stole their design, which is copyright and trademark infringement, then tried to get a deal with another company using the stolen intellectual property.

Sleek Audio sued and won a court judgment of $17,200,000 and 50 Cent refused to pay. Sleek Audio's lawyers moved to the next step - they garnished his bank account, freezing the funds they found. 50 Cent states he plans to appeal the court's decision. In the meantime, some of his funds are tied up in the garnished bank account and if the judgment is upheld the money will be permanently gone.

50 Cent Bank Account FROZEN

12/1/2014 3:20 PM PST BY TMZ STAFF - 50 Cent can't get 50 cents out of his ATM, because his personal bank account is now off limits. It seems 50 didn't pay a whopping $17.2 million judgment over a deal he made to market headphones for a company called Sleek Audio. Sleek claimed 50 stole its design and then tried marketing it on his own. The law sided with Sleek, and 50 got hit with the massive judgment. Legal Lesson: If you don't pay a judgment, the winner can garnish your wages and freeze your bank accounts...

Report: Missing Malaysian Airlines MH370 Airplane Was Deliberately Sabotaged And Taken Down By Jacob Rothschild Over Passengers Involved In Multi-Billion Dollar Patent Business Deal With Him (Video)

 
Billionaire Jacob Rothschild is being accused by many websites and hacker group Anonymous, as having a role in the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines MH370 airplane, for projected billions of dollars in financial gain. Onboard the missing flight were senior executives and engineers from the company Freescale Semiconductor (Austin, Texas) have a semi-conduct patent worth a fortune. Anonymous states Rothschild co-owns the patent with Freescale Semiconductor. 

Jacob Rothschild referred to as an "Illuminati member" by the hacker group Anonymous. "Illuminati members"are notorious for trying to destroy people over their intellectual property such as patents, copyrights and trademarks.

Anonymous accused Rothschild of being an “intellectual property stealing Illuminati member” who has profited from the deaths of the employees of Freescale Semiconductor, as he is now the sole owner of the patent with 20 of Freescale senior employees now gone due to the missing plane. Freescale Semiconductor, “Had just launched a new electronic warfare gadget for military radar systems the day before the plane went missing” Anonymous also states of the 273 people on the plane, 70 were engineers. 

The semi-conduct patent was approved four days after the plane’s disappearance. Freescale and four of its Chinese employees owned the pending patent that was approved four days after the plane went missing. Now Freescale and Rothschild own the entire multi-billion dollar patent. The four Chinese employees are Peid Ong Wang, Zhijun Chen, Zhihong Cheng and Li Ying. The video states, “As all four Chinese members of the patent were passengers on the missing plane, patent owners can alter the proceeds legally by passing wealth to their heirs. However, they cannot do so until the patent is approved .So when the plane went missing, the patent was not approved.” 


The video goes on to state, “If the patent holder dies the other owners share equally in dividends from the deceased. If four of the five patentees dies then the patentee left alive gets 100 percent of the patent. That remaining patent holder is Freescale Semiconductor.” Rothschild owns Freescale Semiconductor (Rothschild’s Blackstone owns Freescale Semiconductor). The video further states, “Rothschild is hiding evidence to gain the rights to this semiconductor. He wants power and he wants his money. It may have taken 239 deaths to do it, but to him that’s just apart of population control.” 

 
Reports online indicate Peid Ong Wang, Zhijun Chen, Zhihong Cheng and Li Ying were killed in a plane crash, over ownership of their intellectual property, in events being blamed on "Illuminati member" Jacob Rothschild 

In life, people should be careful how they make their money. There are families in world history who did awful things for money and ended up suffering for it very badly. The Kennedys are a prime example. Their grandfather, Joe Kennedy, did very cruel and unethical things to people for money, to the point religious and non-religious people state his family has been cursed ever since as a result, due to the things that keep happening to them.

I pray for justice for the passengers of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370, as there is clearly a cover up going on. It’s odd that none of the passengers on the flight called their loved ones before the plane disappeared (during the September 11th terrorist attacks, passengers called their loved ones to say goodbye). There were also men onboard flight MH370 who used fake identities to board. The plane also flew undetected for 6-hours, indicating it was deliberately taken off the radar.

MH370: How Fatal is the Chip That Rothschild Reportedly ‘Acquired’?

On March 25, IntellihubNews reported that with the MH370 now missing or 'took down,' Lord Jacob Rothschild acquired a patent for a potent chip created by 20 employees of Freescale Semiconductor Ltd. aboard MH370. On March 24, Freescale Semiconductor Ltd. confirmed that it has 20 employees among the 239 passengers aboard the MH370 - 12 from Malaysia and 8 from China. 

"Out of respect for the families' privacy during this difficult time, we will not be releasing the names of the employees who were on board the flight at this time," Freescale spokeswoman Jacey Zuniga said. "These were people with a lot of experience and technical background and they were very important people. It's definitely a loss for the company," Mitch Haws, said Freescale's vice president. 

How destructible could this chip be? In a detailed report from Malaysia Chronicle dated April 8, it said that Freescale launched what could be the world's smallest microcontroller in Feb 2013 called the Kinesis KL02. KL02 measures 1.9 mm by 2mm and contains RAM, ROM and a clock. Even with its minute size, KL02 might be the most potent next-generation war weaponry. 

Whether remotely controlled or automatically programmed, KLO2 can be utilised to employ drones smaller than flies. Such small-sized drones were allegedly being used to deliver lab-cloned viruses or toxic drugs instrumental for spreading plague, virus and disease; track spy satellites or large scale and hidden weaponries. KL02 could also be injected to devices like Google glass to render the device obsolete or have the device controlled from 'someone' aside from its owner. 

The chip is also significant in making plausible Pentagon's ultimate dream of human-controlled robotic warrior. It can be injected to bionic prosthetics to control robotic nerves and limbs. 'Killing' the creators of this chip will prevent any leakage or selling of the technology to the Chinese and outside the Malaysian government. It is widely known that China is in its way of advancing its military-applications technology for warfare.

The Malaysian government, on the other hand, is rumoured to have acquired rights to a powerful chip which can alter barcode tags in retail goods and can be inserted into human body to by-pass identity verifications. Rothschild family reportedly owns the Malaysian Central Bank which has significant investments in Malaysian government and Malaysian Airlines.

Beyonce Slammed By European Artist Whose Work She Stole For The "Countdown" Music Video



Video: Beyonce Knowles Rips-Off Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker

Beyonce Knowles was slammed this past weekend, for ripping off the copyrighted works of Belgian choreographer, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, who was not impressed with her dishonest and illegal conduct. De Keersmaeker stated it was copyright infringement and very insulting.

De Keersmaeker responded to press inquiries by stating, "I didn't know anything about this. I'm not mad, but this is plagiarism. This is stealing. They took pieces from Achterland and Rosas danst Rosas. ... It's a bit rude, I must say. ... What's rude about it is that they don't even bother about hiding it. They seem to think they could do it because it's a famous work. ... Am I honored? Look, I've seen local school kids doing this. That's a lot more beautiful."

Beyonce Knowles has become a joke due to constant stealing

Knowles is such a thief. She has done this to so many people (see links below). However, copyrights are assets. Therefore, stealing copyrights is property theft (grand larceny). How would Knowles like it if someone stole her property - say her house for example - stealing it, summarily kicking her out of it and slapping their name on the title. Think about this, there are many copyrights in existence, more valuable than mansions. Under domestic and international law, copyrights are property, solely belonging to the registered owner, not the dishonest famous thief that lazily rips it off.

Beyonce is such a horrible role model, who is greedy beyond compare, as her mantra clearly is, "See something you want that doesn't belong to you, just steal it and put your name on it." You're a criminal and a fraud, with no respect for people's rights or property. Every time you and artists like yourself do this, you shame the industry and let down your fans (dwindling fans, judging by your falling sales and negative public feedback comments all over the internet).

Movie Review - Code Hunter

Title: Code Hunter

Year Of Release: 2002

Review Date: June 30, 2011

Rating: R

Running time: 100 minutes

Box Office Gross: N/A

Site Rating: 3 out of 10 stars

"Code Hunter" is the fictional story of a hacker being blackmailed into stealing technology for an unscrupulous enemy that seeks to control, then wipe out humanity with their insanity. He seeks help from a newscaster, played by Vanessa Marcil (the mother of Megan Fox's stepson) who is reluctant to assist him, due to his story being ambiguous.

The film has guest appearances by rappers Coolio and Tone Loc. This film contains unnecessary cursing, which is why it was probably slapped with an R rating, limiting its audience. Though the film was somewhat low budget, it wasn't that bad in how it was filmed, in terms of picture quality and special efx.

FBI Gives Back Looted Foreign Artwork

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

A few days ago, the FBI held a ceremony to return looted artwork to the country of Peru. The FBI stated on its website, "The 18th-century religious paintings we returned to the government of Peru yesterday might not have been worth millions of dollars, but they symbolized something far more valuable than money - a nation's cultural heritage."

How, ironic, as aspects of my preexisting Copyrights symbolize my cultural heritage that has been profaned, perverted, diluted and deteriorated by miscreants like Madonna and Gwen Stefani, yet because it's worth billions, you haven't returned that.

Sony Suffering Sales Losses

Howard Stringer

Sony and Sony Ericsson continue to suffer massive sales losses, in a terrible financial decline that refuses to abate. Sony's image in the world is so ugly now, people are not inspired to buy from them, due to their dirty corporate practices, such as copyright, patent and trademark infringement.

They've suffered a fresh string of embarrassing losses and defeats recently, posting huge sales declines and having to withdraw some of their product lines, due to the fact people are not buying them.

What is Sony CEO and resident animal's solution to this quagmire, fire more people and force out company junior CEOs, when the problem lays with him, as he is bar none one of the most corrupt, thieving, devious, despicable human beings on the planet. You and Sony are criminals.

Sony Ericsson Reshuffles Leadership, Looks to Tighten Product Line

08/17/09 2:27 PM PT - Executives at both Sony and Ericsson will take new leadership positions at Sony Ericsson, the duo's joint venture in the mobile handheld space. Ericsson's Bert Nordberg will become Sony Ericsson's president upon the retirement of current prez Hideki Komiyama. Meanwhile, Sony Chairman and CEO Howard Stringer will also serve as Sony Ericsson's chairman.

Bert Nordberg, a 14-year veteran of telecom system provider Ericsson (Nasdaq: ERICY) More about Ericsson, has been named president of Sony Ericsson, the firm's joint cellphone venture with the Japanese consumer electronics giant. He'll be succeeding Hideki "Dick" Komiyama, a Sony (NYSE: SNE) More about Sony executive who has led Sony Ericsson More about Sony Ericsson since 2007 and is now headed for retirement.

Nordberg will be co-president of Sony Ericsson -- a new position for the firm -- beginning Sept. 1 and will assume full responsibility on Oct. 15.

In another executive reshuffle, Sony Ericsson has also tapped Sir Howard Stringer, Sony's chairman and chief executive, to take over the chairmanship of the Sony Ericsson board. The role is currently held by Carl-Hendric Svanberg, the Ericsson chief executive, who is in line to become chairman of BP in the United Kingdom.

Although prompted by outside circumstance -- Komiyama's retirement -- the moves may be necessary for the venture to right itself in the face of sharply declining revenues.

Dwindling Commitment?

Sony Ericsson, now in its eighth year, has lost at least US$1 billion in the past 12 months. There have also been questions about the companies' -- particularly Ericsson's -- commitment to the endeavor because of their own recent struggles with market forces and falling cash balances, Ronald Gruia, principal analyst and program leader of Frost & Sullivan's More about Frost & Sullivan emerging telecoms and ICT practice, told the E-Commerce Times...

Sony Pulls The Plugs On OLED Due To Losses & Production Problems

18/08/2009 - Bleeding cash and TV market share, Sony has now said that they will not deliver a new OLED TV this year because of costs and production problems. New research has also revealed that 4 out of 10 Sony OLED TV panels made are dumped because of production problems.

Hailed 18 months ago as the breakthrough TV technology that would catapult Sony into a dominant position in the TV display market, OLED TV is now turning into a lemon for the Japanese TV maker who in Australia has seen their TV display market share savaged by Samsung.

Also in Australia Sony is struggling with several other products with the Company recently admitting that they have had to replace faulty Sony Walkman and Vaio Notebooks that are prone to melting.

In an admission to the Wall Street Journal Sony has said that they are set to delay the launch of its next organic light emitting diode, or OLED, television because mass producing the new ultrathin displays would exacerbate losses at its TV division.

In Australia the Company is trying to sell a tiny 11" OLED TV for $6,999 which is $2,000 more than some vendors are selling a 55" Full HD TV for, complete with a free Nintendo Wii gaming console...

In previous ChannelNews stories we reported that Sony Chief Executive Howard Stringer had said in May 2008 that Sony would have a 27-inch OLED television available within 12 months.
