Fecesbook is by far the most socially conservative social media platform, all I did was post Nashville Pussy and it was flagged and my activity is now limited for a week or whatever.

It's seriously ridiculous, man. It's why I mostly lurk these days and if I do post it's in like 3 or 4 groups where reporting is rare.

Currently have a situation where a band I used to play in has released an album recently featuring music that I composed. I seem to have been credited for it, however, I was never consulted about having my material used for their music & had I been consulted I would have refused. Essentially I'm having my music bundled into this commercial release without my consent, anyone happen to know if I can do anything about this situation? From a legal standpoint or otherwise?

Consult a lawyer with everything you have, don't rely on internet help. There is only a few Aussie's on this forum as it is you don't need someone from another country telling you what's legal somewhere else and making a dick of yourself by throwing around the wrong info from the outset. Find a lawyer that works in copyright and ask them, the worst it will cost you is a consultation fee. It's not worth fucking around with internet help.

Pretty tricky situation if the album is already released. Is it fully hard copy released or just Bandcamp? Have you spoken to the band and told them you’re not happy? What Slammed said, consult a lawyer.

Not sure how much help Legal Aid will be, I've never used them. They might well have someone with generic copyright knowledge that is enough or they should be able to recommend someone specific. Otherwise a do a search for melbourne music industry lawyers, they may even help you out enough on the phone without charging by giving you your options or the path to follow.

Yeah, I see what you mean. They're not exactly specialists or anything. I'm on hold with them at the moment actually, so might just suss out what they have to say & then google search some specialist copyright lawyers. Best to gather as much info as possible.

Pretty sure it's just bandcamp right now, but from what I understand they plan to release physical copies. I have spoken to the band but our talks haven't really made any progress on the matter.
