RUMAG (which is short for Rude Magazine) was a Dutch media company and apparel brand based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.[1]

History

The company was founded in October 2014 by Thijs van der Heide and started out as a blog but later their posts were substituted with quotes and also shared on Facebook.[2][3] The name Rude Magazine was shortened RUMAG and under this name Van der Heide started producing quotes and slogans that are humorous, sexually tinted, and rude.[4] Most of these quotes are not originally produced by RUMAG but taken from various social media outlets or other sources. The RUMAG CEO does not deny this and stated in a televised debate that this practice does not infringe copyright law and that it is a grey zone for the law.[5]

In October 2015, Former nightclub owner Danny Membre and his partner sold their nightclub after which Membre joined RUMAG as a partner and becoming part-owner of the company.[6][7]
