A follower alerted me to my ripped off Kira wings image showing up in Kendall Jenner's Instagram Stories today.
Celebs, please stop sharing edits from anonymous fans & when you're notified it's infringement, REMOVE IT. Doesn't matter if you made it or not, you're accountable.
Yes I sent everyone with an email contact a DMCA including Instagram. Speaking of uber wealthy white celebrities, Paris Hilton is still ignoring my notices btw. Before you say it, no I'm not flattered at all, I don't want to collab with either family for many reasons.
I don't currently or in the future give this family or Paris permission to use or display my work, it needs to come down now. I would appreciate a public correction but I know not to hold my breath for accountability that way.
This harms my market, as I sell legit digital overlays of this same design directly to the public, but even those have a LIMITED license for use - and the number of followers she has would violate those terms, as well as the fact they showed up with zero credit to me.
I have no record of them being purchased by any of the people that posted it.
My full terms are included in the description of my listings as you can see here: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/products/kira-fairy-wings-transparency-stock-png-files
This was likely pulled from my old Etsy listing here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/165305210/giant-kira-fairy-wings-in-your-custom?show_sold_out_detail=1&ref=nla_listing_details
If you want to help, please don’t flood her posts with comments because all that seems to do is increase her traffic and they may ignore them.
Instead, please share this blog post. Unfollow people who infringe on artists and their supporters who look the other way.
