Until the dmca laws change, stolen content will exist in mass. Just the way it is. It appears that most stolen content sites WILL take your shit down if you notify them so we've got that going for us. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of time to locate your own shit so hire RemoveYourContent and just chock the $200/month up to the cost of doing business. They do a great job.
I believe that stolen content tubes and torrents will go away eventually but it will take time. It appears the big boys of porn are not going to spend the money to fight these sites and they've decided instead to embrace them. Fine, under the current law, they have that right. However, is it my hope and belief that the mainstream media will lobby for laws that will benefit adult as well. It's just a matter of time.
I believe the programs who advertise on stolen content sites are shooting themselves in the foot. They just don't realize it yet. For that reason, I'm glad they advertise on these sites. It is my belief that this will mean more business for me in the long-term. Why? Because affiliates are dropping sites that allow tubes and torrents to freely give away their content. Their ratios start hitting 1:2000 and they go looking for different sponsors. So, they pick up programs like mine. Which is nice. :-)
It is my educated belief that, once the DMCA laws change, stolen content sites will be gone, for the most part. Yet, I'll still have all the affiliates who used to promote the programs that allowed their material to be given away for free and advertised on stolen content sites. They'll hopefully contine to be happy and never leave me.
Does it suck right this very moment? Yes it does. But, long-term, programs like mine that actively police sites for stolen content and do not advertise on sites with stolen content, are going to continue to poach affiliates and are going to become stronger and stronger.
I equate the programs that allow tubes to display their content in full length videos and/or advertise on these sites, to people who smoke cigarettes. They know it's going to kill them they just don't know when so it provides pleasure to them NOW, so they'll continue to do it. And that's just fine in my book. All I have to do is survive until the cancer hits. :-)
