Tagging your video?s and pictures is always a good idea, but some people and websites will just remove that with editing software. Most of the bigger tube sites will remove stolen content right away if you send a quick email to the webmaster or DCMA agent. This puts them officially ?on notice? and they don?t want any issues over a few stolen videos. In the U.S when dealing with infringement you can go after anyone who has something to gain from your videos being stolen & posted, that means sponsors, advertisers and even credit card processors because they collect a fee. So if no action is taken after your first email to the tube site itself, start following the money and eventually they will take notice and remove your content. Below is a copy of the email I shoot off anytime I find my stuff on a tube site
To Whom It May Concern, I am the owner, producer and legal copyright holder of a
video which I have found on your site. This content is illegally posted and
has been copied from my website, ?yoursitehere? without my consent. The URL of the infringing item(s) is
"item URL(s) here"
Please remove the item(s) and ban the users who uploaded them, as
they are sure to be uploading illegal content on a regular basis. Thank You in advance and feel free to contact me with any further questions or concerns.
