I think my point was...Mansef/Manwin laid a huge fucking on everybody to begin with. We had no way to "step to the plate" because of the outdated DMCA laws.
Now they are huge. And most everybody else has watched their business destroyed. All the former "big players" were decimated by the kinds of things that Mansef/Manwin did with using all that pirated content.
You know it and I know it.
I hope that Manwin is successful in their fight against .XXX
.XXX is a huge mistake and will be the beginning of the end for the adult online business.
But make no mistake...a LOT of people who could have and would have "stepped up" in the past, no longer have the money to do so thanks in large part to what Pornhub helped do to this industry.
I hope that both Manwin and .XXX go down. And yeah...if Manwin really can do something to stop .XXX it would help me and my business. But I'm also one of the few left out here who hasn't lost their ass and/or NEED Manwin to survive.
Does .XXX mean anything to the dozens of companies who have already went out of business thanks to piracy. Nope.
Does it mean anything to the companies who were crippled and then bought out by Manwin? Nope.
So yeah...let them go at each other's throats.
In the end? I predict that this whole thing will be dropped and .XXX will GIVE Manwin all their domains in a nice backroom deal similar to what we've seen other companies do with their lawsuits AGAINST Manwin.
Now if Manwin were to actually play this to the bitter end and hurt .XXX? Then yes I would applaud that move. And I would still say that Manwin has already done a ton of damage to this industry while .xxx is theoretically in the future going to do damage.
They both suck.
