Instead of hoping that mass complaining to others will change things, how about actually getting your shit together doing something about it? Too much effort, I guess. It's easy to just sit back whinge.

The Rosa Parks of Internet piracy certainly isn't here with us on GFY
But it works fine for me, it has worked before and will work again. I have close to 2000 domains and can send out 2000 unique bitch e-mails too all the right places:

Visa
Mastercard
American Express
Diners
Paypal
Their hosting
Their payment processor
Their merchant account provider (not the same as payment processor or bank)
Their bank (merchant account)
Their domain registrar (False whois = reason to bitch on to ICANN.ORG if registrar does not act)

I am surprised at how easy it is in fact. And quite surprised by how little action others take. You are completely wrong with your assumption that nothing can be done. If everybody on this board got together and complained things would change easily. I guess the real question is: have you ever tried it? because you would be surprised at how easy it really is.
