Report content / DMCA
Effective date:
Slop is an interface to tokens that other people create and publish on public infrastructure. We do not review tokens before they appear. If you find a token or image that is illegal, infringes your rights, impersonates you or someone else, or is otherwise abusive, this page explains how to tell us and what we can do about it.
How to report
Send an email to legal@meatplex.com. Use the subject line "DMCA" for copyright claims and "Abuse" for everything else (trademark, impersonation, harassment, illegal content, scams, sanctions concerns or anything that breaks our Terms). Every report should include:
- the token's mint address, or a link to its page on Slop;
- the image URL, if the problem is the image;
- what the problem is and, where relevant, who is affected;
- your name and an email address we can reply to.
We read every report. We act on the ones that are complete and credible, and we may ask you for more information first. We do not promise a particular outcome or timeline, but copyright notices that meet the requirements below are handled promptly.
What we can and cannot do
Token records live on the Solana blockchain, and token images and metadata are stored on Arweave through Irys. Both are public, permanent and outside our control. We cannot delete a token, its metadata or its image from the blockchain or from Arweave, and neither can anyone else.
What we can do is remove the content from Slop itself. On a valid report we will:
- hide the token from our feeds, search and rankings;
- stop rendering its image and metadata in link previews and share images we generate;
- block the token's page on Slop from displaying the reported content; and
- restrict or terminate the launcher's access, including for repeat infringement.
The token will still exist on chain, may still be visible on other websites and explorers, and may still be traded through other software. To reach those, contact the operators of those services directly.
DMCA notices (copyright)
If you are a copyright owner, or authorised to act for one, and believe that content on Slop infringes your copyright, send a notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to legal@meatplex.com with the subject line "DMCA". Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), the notice must include:
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, or a representative list if a single notice covers multiple works;
- Identification of the infringing material and where it is on the Service, with enough detail for us to find it: at minimum the token mint address or its Slop URL, and the image URL if the image is what infringes;
- Your contact information: name, mailing address, telephone number and email address;
- A good-faith statement that you believe the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law;
- A statement of accuracy, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf; and
- Your physical or electronic signature. Typing your full name at the end of the email is acceptable.
Notices that are missing any of these elements may not be acted on. Anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f). We may forward your notice, including your contact details, to the person who published the content.
Counter-notices
If your token or content was removed from Slop because of a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to legal@meatplex.com. It must include:
- identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal;
- a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- your name, address and telephone number;
- a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your district (or, if you are outside the United States, of any district in which Slop may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or their agent; and
- your physical or electronic signature.
We will forward the counter-notice to the original complainant. If they do not tell us within 10 business days that they have filed a court action to restrain the activity, we may restore the content on Slopbetween 10 and 14 business days after receiving the counter-notice.
Trademark, impersonation and other abuse
Reports that are not about copyright use the same address, legal@meatplex.com, with "Abuse" in the subject line. Tell us the mint address or URL, describe the problem, and, for trademark or impersonation claims, explain who you are and why the content misleads people about you, your organisation or your project. We treat impersonation of real people, companies, projects and existing tokens as a breach of our Terms and will remove it from Slop on a credible report.
If you believe content involves a crime in progress or an immediate risk to someone's safety, contact local law enforcement first, then let us know.
Repeat infringers
We terminate the access of users who repeatedly publish infringing or abusive content. Because the Service is non-custodial, termination does not affect tokens a user already holds or has launched on chain.
