I applaud the efforts of everybody who dared to speak up and I think that it is better that we have one-thread-for-all where to discuss and coordinate our efforts.
I'm real glad to see the FileSonic.com go down along with a few other big ones and the way they simply closed down when shit started to fly tells a lot.
Now the biggest fish out there is DepositFiles.com, Alexa Rank: 186 as much as 10 times bigger than other file lockers and they have an affiliate program that thieves use to pedal your content while PayPal is happy to accept payment for it.
Everybody also seem to forget the fact that DepositFiles.com is being hosted by Webazilla, along with many others.
Hotfile.com, Alexa Rank: 474, runs an affiliate program, PayPal for processing appears to also be hosted by Webazilla, they try and hide it but not very hard, iptransit.com seems to belong to Webazilla as well.
Here I've made a short list of biggest file lockers who are being processed by PayPal and CCBILL, I guess it would be good if we could get together and make sure that PayPal and CCBILL stop providing their services to these thieves.
It's pretty ridiculous to see PayPal doing this while refusing any porn site whatsoever and in case of CCBILL, talk about biting the hand that feeds you!
Here's my list, it is a work in process and by no means is all inclusive, feel free to add to it:
Hotfile.com - PayPal
DepositFiles - PayPal
uploaded.to - CCBILL reinstated their account few hours after a shutdown, WOW! It begs the question why?
filefactory.com - PayPal, looks like CCBILL pulled their account, wonder for how long?
It appears that hosting companies and payment processing companies like PayPal and very recently CCBILL are enabling file lockers to do what they do, while collecting their commission like nothing's wrong.
Let's ask these questions of them, let's ask PayPal and CCBILL. Let's make it our goal that neither CCBILL nor PayPal process payments for file lockers!

The first thing you need to do is find out which of the sites are hosting illegal content. Piracy doesn't seem to be an issue so you have to look beyond that and look for real illegal content, such as CP, rape, snuff, beast sex, and so on.
Go to FilesTube.com and search all the lockers from that location.
Example:
http://www.filestube.com/search.html...sex&select=All
Here it's pulling all the content with "u15 dog sex" and all the file lockers. However, in the sidebar you can hunt per site. Go in there and look keyword by keyword and you'll find real quick which are bad file hosts and which are better. Then target the bad ones. But check the link on the actual site to make sure it's live, and it's best if the link has the keywords in it as well so it's clear what it is. Sometimes FilesTube will list links that have been deleted, so you need to double check.
Forget piracy in regards to all of this. Send your DMCA notices and be done with it. But target the other stuff and you have a hand they are forced to deal with.
I think targeting Paypal and bombing them with info on their clients hosting CP is a good start. This is how Paypal wants you to submit such content to them:
Thank you for contacting PayPal with your concern regarding sales that
potentially violate PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy.

Follow their guidelines, send them the info they want along with the links they need to see, and keep at it. If enough people do this, it will force them to deal with the sites hosting CP and there is a good chance they will lose their account.
For everyone saying something must be done, go do it. I already am. You know what needs to be done so man up and drop a trillion ton shit hammer on their heads. It's been a long time coming. So if you want to make a difference, now is that time. Motivate yourself and do it. Otherwise, if you don't speak up, you can't complain about anything. This is going to take more than 1 or 2 people. They need to be bombarded with info on their clients who are selling anything that is against their AUP.
Good luck.
