So he is pretending he doesn't understand that Saban are legally bound to protect their IP?

 

Wait, i thought IP protection is/was only needed if:

 

A: someone is using your IP for commercial gain.

B: Someone is using content made by the IP owner.

C: Someone is making believe the new content is being made by the IP owner.

 

After that, if i create content as a fan, truly original, and i make sure my audience KNOWS i made it and the IP owner has nothing to do with it, that i could then use my freedom of speech to say do whatever with said material.   Hell, i can create a cartoon about mickey doing Minnie in the buthole and disney cant to anything about it as long as i dont use A B or C.

 

At least thats what I thought IP protection covered.

I think he's more stating that they have no need to protect it. He's not infringing on it.

 

They do have need.  If you own a trademark you are legally bound to either protect it or release it.

Did anyone manage to get the NSFW version? Looks like I downloaded the SFW version and one of my friends is looking for that. 
PM me a link if you know where to find it thanks :)

If it was a fan video it would be one thing but when you start using professional actors, directors and producers then it's another altogether. There is definitely potential for brand damage / confusion, especially given the mature themes which are in stark contrast to the franchise. I'm not sure removing it is necessarily the right call but certainly it's understandable.

I refuse to recognize any group of gifted individuals as Super Heroes, no matter their abilities if they bear the name "Power Rangers". Their chosen name shames everyone and everything before and after them. A stain on the underwear of our very existence.

Is there a name for what you suffer with?

    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance

      I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance

      Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
