Thank you watchfirstnow Team!

Try having your work purloined and see how you feel about it.
They only had to ask, but since they did not, it is copyright infringement, and I intend to pursue that.
Simply put: WFN has taken a teams work and is using it without permission. Intellectual Property Theft may be legal in Canada, but not in the United States.
