Kerals.com turns out be mafialand

We have been hearing of cyber crimes for a while, but little did we think that the dark shadow looming over our head could morph into such a demon charging on you.
It might have come as a surprise to many of the users of kerals.com, that they were trespassing into mafialand, wooed by the glitter of the stolen contents – photos, literature et al from various malayalam blogs, if not by the porn let loose in their sister concerns (malayalampadam.com).
The mafia colurs started to break free after one of the bloggers reported theft. Threats, abuse, stalking followed on to the bloggers who refused to get frightened by the mafia lord, one Mr ShivKumar in this case, and his accomplices.

Incidently ShivKumar and co have everything going against them, but the goons they are, simply mocks at the law
1. Content theft, copyright violations
2. Threat/ abuse mails
3. Cyber stalking
4. New movies made available for download on their sites illegally
5. The notorious link to the porn industry.
6. Fake addresses on their registrations.

As it turns out Mr. Shivkumar has now felt the heat and has resorted to play into tamil sentiments with a fake story (see http://injipennu.com/). With all the mafia background coming to surface this did not come as a surprise.

Inji need to be commended for her stand and should not let hese criminals get away with thier act. Sue them Inji !!

This post is in protest against the harassement meted out to those who raised their voices. I condemn these fascist attacks against the democratic rights of netziens and join my fellow bloggers in their protests.

    Dear Ajay Bakshi,

    Thank you for the call.

    I have been taught to be more polite with impolite people.

    Imagine if you had started the conversation in a more professional and polite manner, it could have salved our time and solved my purpose of writing to you.

    Instead you gave me the job of cooling you down and then tell you what is bothering me.

    One thing is for sure, you cannot be running behind every blogger and beat him/her up. In my email I have been as much polite as I can be. The way I was brought up by my parents did not allow me to reply in the same tone as you did…

    I was only trying to findout if this was a genuine case.

    Shiva or Selva are the people who are the first interface to your company to an outsider like me.

    Don’t you think its their responsibility to be polite and show the outsider that you are a professionally run company and not a group of goondas. They loose their selfrespect as well loose the respect of the public towards your company as a whole, with such irresponsible replies.

    I know you guys are busy with much better work to do. Then why waste time on Inji pennu and other bloggers.

    Give one solid polite reply to everyone and be done.

    Only after I spoke to you I understood your situation. It will be same for everyone else.

    Trust me… Its not worth giving such impolite replies. Look athe most recent reply from Kerals.com to me… Its so impolite and comes no-where near a genuine professional setup or for that matter the guy who wrote it seems like someone brought-up in a highly un-civilized and indecent family.

    Please do not reply in this regards anymore, it will only drag our conversation.

    Lets stay friends and do call me for any help you need from back in India. I will be reachable 24/7 for you.

    Dear Inji Pennu,

    I would say do not delete the details you already published, but rather tell the blogger community that Anashwara group did feel the impact of the unity of the blogger community.

    I also feel, when a small organisation suddenly grows big, it is not necessary that the people involved at the lower level will grow-up too. I am strictly talking about people like Shiva, Selva others who wrote kiddish emails to you. They did not bother about the implications of reply to such general enquiries from the Media.

    My father is a very well-known senior Journalist and most of our family friends are journalist with leading newspapers and magazines around the world. It would not take much time for me to blow up the whole thing and spoil their reputation. But is it really worth punishing the people on top. They too must have had dreams to grow the company with their hard and smart work. And I think its really not worth to punish and spoil their dreams because of some IDIOT who recently got employed or partnered behaved like a wild monkey gone mad.

    Thank you all
