It's not strange at all, you can't (or at least shouldn't if you're being honest) build an argument out of that. Since then the registered copyrights have been transferred multiple times as the IP has legally passed between various parties. They've always been transferred en mass, the public record of which is just the things that they wanted to copyright. I'm sure anyone important enough for cloanto to talk to would have access to more proof.Received on 2020-05-30 01:01:06
