A new site created by sofaspud aka David Uliana claims Justin Kan and the team from Justin.tv have received an eviction notice from their landlord. The site states:
What the above quote from the sympathetic site creator doesn’t mention are Justin.tv’s frequent apartment gatherings/parties (broadcast live to thousands). It might look like fun if you’re watching it on the Internet, but if you're Justin’s neighbor, it probably isn’t a picnic being so close to lifecasting ground zero.
To other would-be lifecasters, this kind of thing should be no surprise. While every landlord has a different contract and legal stance, generally real estate owners frown on residents using their homes as commercial television studios. This stretches the notion of the home office into the limits of fair use.
