Marvel angry about Ant-Man dialogue leak, demands names of Reddit and Google users
arstechnica.com
Reddit post linked to leak on Google Docs; Marvel tries to subpoena both firms.

This may be the canary that shows if reddit has the strength, or not.

    They’ll bow. Marvel owes so much of their past decade of success to the persistent fanboisism that reddit enables.

    Seriously? Marvel dialogues are among the cringiest possible, they could catch random people on streets and pay them to fix it and the effect would be probably much better.

      It’s Marvel - ‘our stuff should be super-secret until we say so’. Good or not, they are hunting names…

    Honestly the movie was so bad, is it really worth fighting the leak posters at this point?

    Hopefully whoever leaked those had good OPsec, and didn’t leave much behind for Marvel to investigate.

      This wouldn’t be an issue if Reddit took a stand against it. Might not happen though… new masters, etc.

    Let’s do a Streisand Effect with that dialogue leak, in order to show them that we have a right to distribute it under the First Amendment (at least in the U.S.). Maybe make some “Free speech flags” out of it, or make a prime number out of it (like what was done with DeCSS)? That would definitely overcome any DMCA takedown attempts.
