I have the utmost sympathy for rights-holders but it's not individuals to blame in this scenario, it's the law. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act is flawed and companies are legally exploiting those flaws, just as companies legally exploit loopholes in other laws.
If you want to fix this problem once and for all then change the law, because until that happens everyone is just blowing smoke.

Well, I wasn't addressing you personally. I wasn't even aware of the allegations that were being thrown at you. I actually thought you were someone who was defending this industry with your stance on file lockers. But then again, why would Mindgeek like file lockers?
I have been in this industry since 1996. From the start I owned arguably one of the largest trafficked adult sites in its day, and the number one site in its niche for several years. Whenever I see someone rip someone on here for having a low post count, or not flying a sig and calling them nobodies, I only see them grasping at whatever they can, because they are getting called out for being a fuckwad. Probably a big reason I don't fly a sig is because of the state of this industry. I have watched this industry erode itself from the inside out for 20 years. I have always done honest business and refused to work with every shady fuck, even if I could have made a few extra bucks. I have called many of them out on this board at times, and unsurprisingly watched industry "leaders" defend and bro up with these shady fucks at every twist and turn.
I could go on, but then again, who is going to listen to a "nobody" who has a low post count and doesn't fly a sig or flash my bro pass.
