Which torrent site should we go after first?
 

A lot of people have been asking for someone to take legal action against torrent sites and those that profit from them... Well now is your chance. Email me any examples you find where Homegrown Video or Xplor Media Group titles are being offered - screenshots would be a major plus too and greatly appreciated.

Thanks!:thumbsup

The one with the most stolen content

Well if 'he's' going to take them to court, they have to be infringing on 'his' copyrighted content so we best be finding who's got the most of it, + is pretty big on stealing everyone else's too.

well try the pirate bay and then wait some days to see your mail appear in this page
let the party begin:)

hah never noticed that

bump for someone taking action!

Thats going to be one big quest and battle but good for you! :)

Hugely appreciated! I think everyone knows by now that we are not the types to blow smoke about stuff like this.

Hi Farrel...I applaud your commitment!!! :thumbsup

You might want to combine your effort with the action planned by the anti-piracy group at the recent LA meeting (which I attended).

In any case, with minimal effort here are a few of my results:

Please keep us posted on how it goes...

ADG

If I get any submissions on my video site for HGV I will let ya know.

So far nadda.
And if you got any Footage from HGV that ya would like for my video site I will be more than glad to list it:)

I will do the encoding and need a minimum of 2 minutes or longer per clip or scene.

AlienQ, why the heck do you want MORE than 2 minutes? Pointless, no?

!
 

You are assuming he even has a video site... :upsidedow :1orglaugh

BTW, AlienQ invented Tube and Torrent content theft sites... :winkwink:

ADG

And chuck norris kicks the asses of anyone who says otherwise...:winkwink:

Ya stupid beater...:1orglaugh
I do got a video site and I am always looking for more content people to partner up with that would like to be promoted.
Sorry I do not engage in content theft.

You kids are like a year or two behind already.

fuck them all.... i am in!

Jeez, how hard is it to track down where some of these guys live and pay some pipe hitting Ukranians to go to town on their kneecaps and film it. Then start a torrent that features other torrent webmasters getting their asses beat. "Now this is happening...."

Good idea to not post the URL - you wouldn't want too many people trying to check it out at once...

ADG

how about forums that thumbnail and share tons and tons of full site rips and dvd rips etc. usually with rapidshares help (and advertisers help)?

pornbb has a whole bunch of your stuff on there, 60 threads found searching on homegrown alone... forums are worse than torrents because they are more easily accessible

Now would be a good time to hit torrentspy because they are already hurting

Illegal and will get you in more trouble than you need. How's this for a solution, need cleverer guys than me to point out the flaws.

Find the uploaders and anyone infringing on your copyright. Find out where they live. Send them an email telling them you have logged and found them, so they try to hide the evidence which is what fucked the girl who got sued by the RIAA.

Set up a site with all the information and news on people being exposed as thieves and how they got screwed for doing it. Cases like the above and all her public information will be there. The guys who settle out of court are referred to a "A man in San Diego California recently settled for $2,000 for uploading porn movies to TorrentXZY." With the full story but no names. The guys who don't settle can have the full article and details on the site. Any news stories would be linked as well.

Then sue them, offering to settle out of court for a fee or going to court.

You will need to speak to a lawyer, sure you know a few, so as not to fall foul of extortion. But all the money made is put back into the kitty to go after other pirates.

As I said just an idea and might work or might not. Thieving music makes you an opportunist, thieving porn makes you a pervert. Neighbors would love to know you're doing that. :1orglaugh

I don't understand. How can traffic like this convert?

Here's a big fucking Tugjobs Ad.
http://i24.tinypic.com/vzj9ec.gif

A search for Tugjobs brings this up:
http://i24.tinypic.com/2r739ma.gif

Why would anyone signup for that site?

rapidshare

I have alot of sites yo...
I manage them every day for about an hour or two, and one is climbing nicely in traffic.

except you would be violating their privacy which depending on the country could have statutory damages as high 10k per instance, and actual damages in the millions.

As you say you are branding a person a pervert without a successful win in court.

Thank you for taking action... it's gonna take a few players like you to get the point across. You got mail :thumbsup

I've been saying that a few times already.. What these torrent/forums don't realize is that their fucking with big $$, lots of big $$$!!! When you fuck with big $$, shit like that can easily happen :2 cents:

The pirate bay is probably loving this. People go after the smaller torrent sites (ie Demonoid) and taking them down. That drives more traffic to the pirate bay.

Wow they really don't give a fuck do they!

Good point I don't understand either

Spyware is killing the internet... Torent sites are 3/4 bullshit ... the ones that are real don't give a fuck as you can see: http://thepiratebay.org/legal.php

Everyone is yelling about Zango, but there are 100's of Zango's out there which have much less ethics then Zango and are making MILLIONS stealing our traffic.

Those are the people that are really hurting the Internet. Not only Adult.

FAR-L is this something you intend to do on your own, or do you want to get involved with the anti-piracy association that was formed on Sept 5th. I'm sure that it could use the backing and Homegrown heart for standing up for what is right. No one showed up that night from Homegrown so we don't know if you wanted to be part of a collective or if you even thought that anyone in the industry would take it seriously.

zango schmango, at least they stand up and say hey look what we're doing. Theres so many fucking adult companies fucking each other it makes me want to puke all over my screen. start inside the industry and start blackballing fuckers that screw other people who they pretend to be friends with first is what i have to say.

Still helping madawgz with his warez sites?:321GFY

You are so right.:thumbsup

Hi, Dave. While you're on your fight against hurting the internet. How come this is allowed to happen well over a month since I reported it here on gfy and emailed you guys. I of course never heard back from you but don't you think it's a bad thing to accept warez traffic? Isn't having to signup to platinumbucks sites to get access to stolen software a bad thing? Or is that allowed?

One thing occurs to me about the anti-piracy fight. Maybe this was already suggested at the piracy roundtable a while ago, but as I wasn't involved so here is my suggestion in this open forum. Big content producers should select one offending target and simultaneously sue them with multiple lawsuits from separate parties. Imagine the company having to defend itself against a dozen multi-million dollar lawsuits simultaneously from different content producers. I think that could work as a tactic to get cooperation from the torrent sites.

I'd go after rapidshare etc first before the torrent sites.

No, not PureTnA.... that's where I get most of my pr0n!!

:upsidedow

Yea, this makes sense... Without giving the ability of users FREE uploads this will reduce the amount of content that's out there :2 cents:

Can't promise anything but at least we can try and take a stab at it...

The only reason we didn't show up was because Spike, the person best within range to attend easily, had family obligations and could not attend. We would not be opposed to working with your group at all but I would really need a bunch more information about who is involved. For example, we were very strict about companies that were allowed in the Defense Group we formed to fight things like Acacia. Only reputable companies that were willing to go the distance and face discovery and disclosures in the court's public forum were allowed, upstanding folks that had nothing to hide on their tax returns, had good 2257 compliance, etc. - you get the picture.

Wow where did Platinum Dave go? no wonder he wants to fight zango instead of stolen content, he's making money off warez traffic

Looks like we can add FreakBucks to the list of scumbags aswell

Yea lets add them to the list of scumbags without even contacting them about the issue... Someone just sent me this post, I will look into it and see what that site is all about and which affiliate it is. IF you really care and are not in this just for your sig views, contact me and I can resolve this issue faster.

How about just banning the affiliate without having to look into it more than establishing username based on reflink? What else is there to look into? Unless, of course, you need the signups he's bringing in. :Graucho
