I tried for three months to sell to everyone I found stealing content. Gave up and let APIC send DMCAs to their hosts.

This illustrates the mentality of the morons today, can you imagine what it was like 15 years ago?



However I was not talking about the theft issue, which is wrong, I'm talking about those who keep going on and on about the decline of the Internet porn business. When they really mean the decline of their income from the business.
