Jukin Media Reviews 

Jukin Media traps unwary social media members into buying retroactive licenses for sharing a video one time which has no copyright markings and no warning that a license is required to share. There is no warning, only a copyright strike on you so that your social media account is blocked either for a period of time or permanently. They require and demand a retroactive license purchase. They arbitrarily determine if your sharing constitutes fair use or not and your only recourse is to take it to federal court. That's expensive and is the result of a loophole in copyright law that was meant to be protective of creative content creators but is now being used to something akin to extortion to enforce the rights of the original owner. This is an unscrupulous business model designed to scare innocent people into purchasing a license at a cost of anywhere from $49 to $299 even though the video has been removed and might only have been up for a few minutes. For $49 Jukin Media sells you a license without a watermark which would signify that the media is not in the public domain and could result in a DMCA notification filed against you. This looks like the company has intent to open people up for accidental "theft of intellectual property". Copyright law at this time requires companies like Facebook to immediately remove the claimed video upon notification from the owner that you don't have a license or permission to share the video. This theft of intellectual property notification will become your first introduction to copyright law. This unethical attack is a blatant abuse of copyright law in this day and age where media is commonly shared on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and elsewhere. Live links are included in all media whether on social media like Facebook or YouTube, national news websites, or local news links. If the video is not shareable then there should not be a live link available for sharing. There are divisions of Jukin Media called the Pet Collection, FailArmy, This Is Happening, People Are Awesome, and Poke My Heart. I have created a Facebook groups entitled Jukin Media False Accusations which everyone should join because everyone who has ever shared a video online is potentially a victim of Jukin Media since the agreement they have with the original owners includes rights to enforce PAST, present, and future unauthorized use of the media. Think about that.
