Someone always posts something like this everytime something good is posted in the battle against piracy.

I see it for what it is. Another step towards ending this shit. But the way some people think...there is no hope and everyone should just roll over and die. lol

I'd bet that if all pirate sites were closed tomorrow and any site pirating were IP blocked from every major country...Someone on GFY would still post: "not sure why anyone thinks this is a big deal, or will have any affect on anything at all concerning the adult biz"

Everything has an effect. I've already seen sales starting to rise up again from my affiliate work over the last two months...right as a ton of publicity about downloaders getting letters from lawyers and news stories of torrent and tube sites handing over ip's and user account info to govt. agencies for prosecution.

Coincidence? My experience says "no". It's all having an effect. And those of us who sell porn for a living can see it happening.
