Over the years I've contacted a ton of the sponsors who's members area content was put on sites by their own affiliates, at least 50% of the time nothing was done. Even Playboy Legal didn't suspend an affiliate who had basicully put the whole Cyber Club member's area online.



look I'm just saying that's how they'll spin it
and yes I agree if they would sue the guys who put up all this content, it would be great, but randomly (that's what's in the article says) suing people who downloaded it, no.
Go after the ones who are sharing a whole bunch of content, not the one who downloaded some of the content and don't share it after they downloaded it



okay, say they sent the DMCA notices, why don't they sue them after the torrent site didn't take down the torrent, I search Tawnee Stone on isohunt for instance, some stuff has been on there for 200-300 days



sent the DMCA to their hosts, much more effective (Paris from Play With Paris is doing it this way)

no agenda, just goes against my perception of fairness, going after little consumers, because you can't or won't go after the big providers, hell no, go after the pirates, we've heard enough horror stories about when RIAA did this

and again: clean up your affiliates
if someone is stealing then they arent a consumer.
