ok then, enjoy ;-)

copyright complaints, click the button, call your senator, sue someone who actually hosts your stolen content, we don't and we'd love if you would. Absent any real attempts by companies to defend their content, we're left with few choices. The issue's a little bigger than cliphunter, but cliphunter does everything it can to assist people. If you use the reporting tool on the site, videos are removed in an extremely expediant fashion. We've recieved only one DMCA complaint to date, and that was resolved in 20 minutes.

I'm not a fan of DMCA, but for now it's law, and I have to compete by the laws. Most of the people I respect and work with, even those who adversely affected by these issues understand and respect the position we're in. Hell, they buy adspots on the people we embed, so cry elsewhere, but we're not making more money now than we were as a dominant TGP, so we'd greatly enjoy a return of more strict interpretations of copyright holder's rights.

As the legal environment changes, we will to. Until then, enjoy scraping and the comedy stylings of emil, I'm done here.
