Disney, Warner Win $400k Case Against Firm With Ads on Pirate Sites - GoFuckYourself.com

eroticsexxx · 11-01-2010, 10:44 AM

Disney and Warner Bros have just won $400,000 in damages from a web advertiser that "helped fund" piracy by supplying ads for pirate websites. Is Google, the biggest web ads provider, rightly or wrongly next on the legal list?

The damages are levied against Triton Media, which the courts have thus found guilty of "contributory copyright infringement" and "inducement to infringe." Triton's crime is an odd one: Providing a web ads facility to websites including free-tv-video-online.info and watch-movies.net.

Wow...Just wow.

I guess if you feel you can't go after the perpetrator, go after the ones with the money that are sorta involved.

Looking fwd to this thread to hear from the GFY's legal minds/

wonder when they are going to go after all those cpl companies where you have to fill out a survey to watch a movie that are all over the net?

eroticsexxx · 11-01-2010, 10:52 AM

That case is a major win against piracy.

It sets the precedent that advertisers are not completely "off-the-hook" in regards to the sites they pay to advertise on.

RuthB · 11-01-2010, 11:01 AM

nice! hit em where it hurts - turn off the funding and pirate sites will be much easier to kill!

Ethersync · 11-01-2010, 11:17 AM

This is a good strategy. Much better than John Doe IP address lawsuits.

2MuchMark · 11-01-2010, 11:18 AM

Excellent move and congrats to Disney & Warner Bros.

Let's get nekkid!!!

Another quote from the article:

"By supplying ads to the sites in question, Triton was indirectly contributing to their copyright abuse, so the legal argument went. It's a valid question, when you consider that web ads firms generally screen their site clients before accepting them, and it should've been easy to spot that these streaming sites were blatant copyright violators."

This hints to me that a good faith effort may have gone a long way.

It'd be funny to watch someone sue Mofos (Manwin) for supporting PornHub (Manwin).

ottopottomouse · 11-01-2010, 01:07 PM

Well it cuts off one source of income but things like pay-per-download will still provide another.

madawgz · 11-01-2010, 01:10 PM

um, they said google is next?

google really doesnt allow their ads to be served on those type of tv streaming sites...

not sure how they'll sue them

Klen · 11-01-2010, 01:11 PM

I remember when people was actually boycotting aff beacuse of them financing torrent/warez sites...then somehow collective memory was erased and most of affiliates still promote them.

True, but this is the first glimmer of hope, in my opinion, to getting piracy under control.

woj · 11-01-2010, 06:32 PM

I wonder how they figured 400k...

Damn! Talk about CUTTING OFF THE OXYGEN of pirate sites.

What's next? Content producers suing Dating sites for funding illegal tubes?

That's fucking HUGE.

Robbie · 11-01-2010, 11:10 PM

Hell yes! It's about time that people funding those fucking thieves were held accountable.

Time is running out on that whole fucking thing. This is another win for all of us. The precedent is set. If I were a dating and/or cam site buying those prepaid spots I'd seriously think about getting the fuck off of there.

I'm so sick of finding my stuff promoting Live Jasmin and AFF that I could puke.

Carmen80 · 11-02-2010, 01:50 AM

400k seems so little. That amount is nothing for disney and warner so i wonder how they came up with that amount.

They possibly aimed for an amount that Triton Media could actually stretch to paying rather than a typical $90billion award that generates nothing.
