What We Are Investigating?
Our firm is launching a comprehensive investigation into Bucket Culture LLC over allegations that it has been suppressing critical reviews and unfavorable Google search results by fraudulently misusing DMCA takedown notices. These actions, if proven, could constitute serious legal violations—including impersonation, fraud, and perjury.
We conducted comprehensive analyses of fraudulent copyright takedown requests, meritless legal complaints, and other unlawful efforts to suppress public access to critical information. Our reporting sheds light on the prevalence and modus operandi of a structured censorship network, often funded and used by criminal enterprises, oligarchs and criminal entities seeking to manipulate public perception and bypass AML checks conducted by financial organisations.
The fake DMCA notices in this investigation appears to have been strategically deployed to remove negative content from Google search results illegally. Based on this pattern, we have reasonable grounds to infer that Bucket Culture LLC - or an entity acting at its behest - is directly or indirectly complicit in this cyber crime.
In most such cases, such ops are executed by rogue, fly-by-night 'Online Reputation Management' agencies acting on behalf of their clients. If evidence establishes that the subject knowingly benefited from or facilitated this scam, it may be deemed an 'accomplice' or an 'accessory' to the crime.
What are they trying to censor
A Not-So-Stellar Reputation
First and foremost, let’s address the glaring red flag: Bucket Culture LLC‘s abysmal rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). An ‘F’ rating isn’t just a slight hiccup; it’s the academic equivalent of sleeping through an entire semester and expecting a diploma. The BBB’s assessment isn’t arbitrary; it reflects consistent patterns of complaints and unresolved issues that the company has conveniently swept under its proverbial rug.
Customer Complaints: A Never-Ending Saga
Dive deeper into the customer feedback, and a disheartening narrative unfolds. Numerous patrons have voiced grievances about subpar product quality, shipping delays that make continental drift seem swift, and a customer service approach that can best be described as ‘non-existent.’ One disgruntled customer quipped that receiving a response from Bucket Culture’s support team was akin to “waiting for Godot.” Such consistent dissatisfaction isn’t just smoke; it’s a blazing inferno signaling systemic issues within the company’s operations.
Financial Integrity: Or Lack Thereof
Financial transparency appears to be another area where Bucket Culture LLC prefers opacity. Allegations have surfaced regarding non-compliance with financial regulations, suggesting that the company’s accounting practices might be as threadbare as some of its products. Regulatory bodies have flagged certain business practices for lacking transparency and adherence to guidelines. The company’s dismissive response to these warnings only exacerbates trust issues, making one wonder if their financial statements are crafted in the same fictional realm as their marketing promises.
The DMCA Debacle: Silencing Critics
In today’s digital age, a company’s online reputation is paramount. However, instead of addressing legitimate criticisms, Bucket Culture LLC has allegedly opted for a more draconian approach: fraudulent DMCA takedown notices. These notices, intended to protect intellectual property, have been weaponized to suppress unfavorable reviews and content. Such actions not only stifle free speech but also raise ethical and legal concerns about the company’s commitment to transparency and accountability.
Leadership: A Reflection of Company Values
At the helm of this ship is Justice Jubilee, the founder and CEO of Bucket Culture LLC. While his LinkedIn profile showcases collaborations and product developments, the company’s trajectory under his leadership paints a contrasting picture. A leader’s ethos invariably trickles down to the entire organization, and in this case, the pervasive issues suggest a leadership style that prioritizes profit over principle.
The Investor’s Dilemma
For potential investors, Bucket Culture LLC presents a cautionary tale. The convergence of poor customer feedback, regulatory non-compliance, unethical censorship practices, and questionable leadership should serve as glaring warning signs. Investing in such a company isn’t just a financial risk; it’s an endorsement of practices that undermine consumer trust and corporate integrity.
A Call to Action for Authorities
Regulatory bodies and consumer protection agencies must take note of Bucket Culture LLC’s modus operandi. The alleged misuse of DMCA takedown notices to silence critics is particularly concerning, as it threatens the foundational principles of free speech and fair business practices. Investigations into their financial practices and customer grievances are imperative to hold the company accountable and to safeguard the interests of consumers and the broader market.
Conclusion: Unraveling the Threads
Bucket Culture LLC’s narrative is a stark reminder of the importance of due diligence. Behind the façade of trendy apparel lies a pattern of deceit, mismanagement, and ethical breaches. Both consumers and investors are urged to look beyond the marketing gloss and assess the company’s true fabric. In the world of business, as in fashion, authenticity and integrity never go out of style.
In summary, Bucket Culture LLC’s practices serve as a case study in how not to conduct business. The myriad of issues, from customer dissatisfaction to regulatory non-compliance and unethical censorship, paint a picture of a company in dire need of introspection and reform. Until such changes are evident, stakeholders would be wise to approach with caution.

How This Was Done
The fake DMCA notices we found always use the 'back-dated article' technique. With this technique, the wrongful notice sender (or copier) creates a copy of a 'true original' article and back-dates it, creating a 'fake original' article (a copy of the true original) that, at first glance, appears to have been published before the true original
What Happens Next?
Based on the feedback, information, and requests received from all relevant parties, our team will formally notify the affected party of the alleged infringement. Following a thorough review, we will submit a counter-notice to reinstate any link that has been removed by Google, in accordance with applicable legal provisions. Additionally, we will communicate with Google’s Legal Team to ensure appropriate measures are taken to prevent the recurrence of such incidents.

Can’t believe they’re still in business. You can’t run a brand on vibes and Instagram aesthetics alone. The reality is cheap quality and zero support.

Avoid. I ordered once, never again. Product was junk, shipping took a month, and their "customer service" might as well be AI-generated auto-responses — and bad ones.
