Using Spectate isn't E-Stalking. Stop blaming your community and accept responsibility.

The claim involves Faker, a very popular Korean League of Legends player. Another individual recently made a stream that shows all of Faker's games, using Riots API. The streamer then received a DMCA request from Azubu, a company that has Faker under a streaming contract. It was denied, since there was no basis.

Marc Merril then came in with this series of tweets: https://twitter.com/MarcMerrill/status/569525836539305986 Faker has requested that we disallow this type of re-stream and to take action. Fyi https://twitter.com/MarcMerrill/status/569532667642785793 The main issue (from my perspective) is the incessant & automated re-broadcast specifically targeting an individual. https://twitter.com/MarcMerrill/status/569532920521564160 Faker chose to do a deal with Azubu - that's his choice https://twitter.com/MarcMerrill/status/569539092783828992 To be clear - we're against e-stalking. If we need to change our rules over and over to close loop holes to protect our players, we will. To be clear, i have nothing against Azubu protecting its investment or Faker requesting more privacy.

I have no problem with Azubu wanting to protect there investment with Faker. I do have a problem with Marc Merril trying to pin it on the community with spectating a game equivalent to stalking. Don't blame us for using YOUR API having faults.
