I would like to delete my subtitles - law reasons


I uploaded subtitle anonymously some time ago. I'm not sure if everything is ok with law, so i would prefer it will be deleted. How can i do?

Hi,

Sorry, you can't delete them because they are not in your name and you are not liable for them in any given law that can be proven. They are uploaded by "anonymous"! Any law against the file isn't something you are liable for. So there is nothing for you to worry about. The only thing that would possibly make you liable is advertising everywhere that you are the anonymous uploader.

More importantly, it can't be proven you were the original uploader, either.

Even registered users are never targets of any law or copyright acts, it's the site that gets the message to take down any subtitles by media, subtitling, broadcasting companies, etc, not the user themselves.

Good day.

Ok then, I'm relieved, thank you. But can you delete them so I would upload them from my account? I made these subtitles a while ago and corrected some of the bad mistakes and misspellings there.

Sorry, but firstly you want to have these anonymous subs deleted for legal reasons and now you want to re-upload these subs under your account anyway? Does that make sense to you? Not to me. Can you explain, please?

Previously I thought I would have problems if I posted them from my account. But now I researched the topic and in my country I'm not under any threat

If you tell me your username (not for this forum, but for the subtitles site), I can set that subtitle to your account.
