Actually, I care quite a bit about those who have been a destructive force to the industry. And I never said "turn them off." I said if you cared about piracy you would change how they operate, meaning how you allow any Tom, JoJo, or Vlad to upload anything they want with nothing to verify who they are. Note I did not say verify their content.
Just one simple step of not allowing free emails would cut out a lot of of them. Another step would be to only allow uploader accounts to be created from the site email the videos belong to, or the program email it comes from. DMCA doesn't say you can't do that.

That's piracy too last time I checked.

Again, who's asking you to turn them off?
And yes, I don't care if GFY or every other site is sued into oblivion. That is not my problem. We all lived before user submitted content, we will all live after it should it go away or be forced to exist under stricter laws.
No, I do not own the copyright to the image I posted in this thread, but I'm also not profiting from it.

Fingerprinting is not the only solution. As I've said before, my new content doesn't get pirated hardly at all. We came up with our own methods and they seem to be working for over a year.
Furthermore, I don't trust anything the FSC has their useless hands in. They don't exactly have a track record of being successful at... anything.

Yea, I'm here for the high-fives. Got me. And grow up? Who is the kid throwing hissy fits over blog comments and speaking down to everyone who disagrees with him?

It doesn't matter if you "love piracy" or not. You profit from piracy at an unprecedented level and go out of your way to pretend you don't, with your only defense is to condescendingly tell everyone that they just don't understand.
Here is what I understand, and as far as any honest businessman is concerned, this is all that needs to be understood: You run the largest pirate network of sites on the internet and profit massively from them. I do not. Nothing else needs to be understood.
And again, since you have problems comprehending what others say to you... I am not asking for you to close your tubes. I understand they are here to say. I also understand you will not even delete the accounts of multiple infringers because that would mean you would lose 1000s of videos per account. And last, I also do not forget that just before you "acquired" Mansef, they were paying uploaders to populate some of the tube sites you now own. A fact you won't discuss because you know legally you can't. But lets cut the shit, we both know it happened and I will bet anything those accounts, the ones Mansef paid to upload videos, are still active under your watchful eye.

It's convenient to be able to say you are working within the laws, throwing money around to different groups to fight piracy, all the while making more money from piracy than anyone else on the planet.
And fighting "REAL piracy" is relative. Theft is theft. You don't personally search for your content or send a single DMCA. However, it is clear by your statements that you believe what you do is more important than what anyone else does, that your "fight" is larger, and you are doing more than anyone else. Here is a newsflash... GFY has done more to fight file locker piracy in the last week than you have since you "acquired" Mansef. Get over yourself.
Bottom line is this, if you were someone like Dave Cummings and had an honest business, none of this would be falling on your door step and no one would ever be breaking your balls. Zero. Zilch. Nada. But you knew walking into Mansef what they were up to, so you should have thickened your skin. Instead you throw temper tantrums and speak down to everyone who doesn't pat you on the back.
I'm not even sure why you waste your time here with all the "REAL piracy" fights you have going on. You should suit back up and get back to the front lines.
