There are alot of guys who agree with you about tech sector pushing their own corporate agenda under the guise of "saving the free internet". Some on topic links:

Great links thank you. I especially like this comment from the first one :
« The New Republic-always the class act-decided to respond with a character assassination piece. »

I freely admit that there was a time that the Internet confused me. (It is because of my age) But I have learned a lot in a short time and I freely admit to thinking that the new form of business marketing is character assasination. ** I was wrong **

The Internet is just one of many different forms of product delivery methods available. It has some advantages compared to old methods and it has some disadvantages. But just because we have a new way to bring our products to market does not mean that time tested business practices and principals are obsolete. In fact they are more relevant than ever before.

I have more than 4 decades of experience in this field and in business. One thing that holds true even today is that character assasination is the tool of those that are engaged in screwing over others for their profits and it is also the tool of last resort of those that are desperate, usually a failing business.

Whereas a business person that does pays their employees a fair wage, creates a product of quality to the best of their ability and adhears to their promises does not need anyone to promote them. Because over time loyalty and trust always build.

So yes there is a corporate agenda behind the « save the Internet » gang. Because anyone truely intersted in freedom would just pull the plug. Real revolutionnaires meet in person and not on IRC and they certainly do not hide behind Guy Fawkes masks manufactured by Time Warner.

And believe me when I say that illegally downloading any of my films is not going to create a new more juste society. All it does it lower how much I pay my employees.

Are you saying it's legal or less of a crime to steal something that can't be stolen?

If freedom means stealing what ever can be stolen, then you can keep your freedom. But it doesn't, you're you're just bitching because your favourite file locker got busted and won't get paid. :thumbsup

Congratulations AK and thank you for keeping up the fight.

Those last sites who lost biller was so new, that I not knew any of their names yet.
So the average life time of a new file locker domain it is now how long, a week? a month?

Just because you don't know them doesn't mean they haven't been around for a while.

While one or two are relatively new some sites manage to fly beneath the radar fairly well, they are just as much of a problem as the bigger sites.

The piracy eco-system is huge, much larger than any one person can wrap their head around.

Bump for AK.

Thank ya! :)

Happy to see Avangate is moving in the right direction. Keep up the good work AK!

Bump 4 poo...

(1st time in months this hasn't been on the front page - Prob the elections?)

We're still working hard behind the scenes.

And we are still right behind you.

What's a reasonable time frame for lockers like RS to respond to DMCA's?

48 hours or less.

Bumping for some GOOD news today.

back to the top :)

RS fails horribly!

http://jdownloader.org and http://linkdecrypter.com/ both aren't working for me when it comes to http://protected.socadvnet.com

Having issues decrypting these links

http://protected.socadvnet.com/?592-54-1211012128508cb (lumfile)

If anybody knows of a way, please let me know

You said it.

First attempt, copy file name and use google:
http://www.google.com/search?q=nbe-20121028p.rar

First result is the correct lumfile url.

(obviously not the best way, but works at least for this one)

the king of contradiction

but something has to do

luckyshare.net seems to be another one

seven seven five

better method:
1. open the link in chrome
2. right click anywhere on the lumfile area and select "view frame source"
3. check the address bar. (view-source:http://lumfile.com/cw6op68q40vt/nbe-20121028p.rar.html)
4. done

at its best...

Yeah I tried that with all of them, that was the only one that worked with, coincidence that i used that one as an example

hah wow, i actually looked at the page source but didn't even look at the address bar. sometimes when youre frustrated, you overlook the simple things. thanks!

Do not forget to cc your DMCA to infringements(at)copycontrol.org

dont blame yourself, the one who made this awesome protection script obviously forgot it as well.

Are these guys responding at all?

They are processing in dollars for filepost.com
