Is there a reply?

When you have to send something to defend your trademarks and copyrights, but have some class about it.

Smart Netflix... funny unique replies go viral on the interwebs

If you don't take action to protect your IP, you can lose it.

Hey I've been to that bar!

I can imagine some letters wouldn't be this nice.

It's fair and honest. They are still giving them time to do this but ask it go no further unless a deal is struck.

Oh cool this is reposted again

They probably torrented season 1 anyway.

I have to say, that is a pretty classy way to protect your intellectual property without being a dick. Well done, Netflix.
JacobKreutzfeldt
I think this may be a clever marketing trick from netflix to make a thing go viral to get free exposure and good will. Even D&D is in on it.

Good job, Netflix. It's a repost, OP.
bundleofwoodensticks
But I haven't seen it....wait a second. That's my own god damn fault
ThomasMcMullin
OP Might not have known it was on Imgur before, and even if it was, I appreciate seeing it. There's a reason reruns are a thing.
AquaCrusher
Only the best things are worth reposting
rogue00ff
Point taken.

A nice lawyer? I guess stranger things have happened.
watdisbuttondo
Damn you for making me smile.
thatswhatyouthink
It was a nicely worded threat of legal action. If they don't stop I'm sure they will learn how "nice" Netflix legal team is.
SomethingWittyIDK
You literally have no choice about defending copyright/property. You either do or don't, you don't get to pick and choose.

I don't understand who is mad at what and why is it Netflix's fault?
MentallyDisturbed
The letter is filled with Stranger Things references which made it notable.
ItsPrettySpicy
Emporium, a barcade in Chicago, opened a Stranger Things-themed pop up bar called "The Upside Down." Became immensely popular.
MentallyDisturbed
it read like the bar is showing Stranger Things (unknown if for profit?) and Netflix sent them a letter to stop.
MothMonsterMan
Ah okay that makes more sense on what I originally thought.
OfficialBenderRodriguez
Looks like a stranger things themed temporary pop-up bar that Netflix is allowing to continue until originally planned end date
BlackHartMTB
And don't do it again, unless you ask nicely.
MentallyDisturbed
What is a pop up bar?
kittyprrrrl
These guys do pop-up bars in DC that are pop culture themed. They just finished their GoT run, and basically they decorate the bar (1/?)
kittyprrrrl
really extensively and serve themed drinks. Apparently it’s awesome and people wait in line for hours and pay crazy covers to get in. (2/3)
kittyprrrrl
They don’t show the shows or anything, they just make you feel like you’re there and use content from the show to do so. Hence, Int. Prop.
Theverant
I don't see how netflix can get them to stop, then. As long as the aren't rebroadcasting actual episodes. I'd tell netflix to pound it
doctormal
You can't sell a Stranger Things experience without ownership (or consent from owner) of the intellectual property.
SirGunther
Clearly someone hasn't taken a business ethics class.
