Titan Names 244 in Federal Piracy Lawsuit

Will be interesting to follow this.

Will they get a lot less resistance from defendants than those who pirated Hurt Locker? :1orglaugh

Can you imagine having to go to court because you received a subpoena that says you downloaded Gay Butt Pirates III, Bareback Mountain, and His First Anal Gangbang. Talk about letting the cat out of the bag.:1orglaugh

That alone would be worth the chuckle.
:1orglaugh

wouldn't be fun for sure :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yep, Rev. Smith from the 1st baptist church is going to have some explaining to do....:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh too funny

If Tubes were forced to give out the IP addresses of uploaders it would be a real triumph. Let them prove they are being uploaded by others and let the owners go after them.

Titan is one porn company you don't want suing you

That's already possible with a court order today isn't it?

The long version of the answer to your question is found in 17 USC §512(h).

The short version of the answer is "yes."

Once again, gay companies stepping up to protect its piece of the pie while the straight side slowly withers and dies. That's a lie, there are a few smart straight companies stepping up to the plate ... and we all know who they are.

244 isn't many. However, after a few VERY EMBARRASSING cases some people may actually worry about this risk from pirating and either stop watching all together (doubtful) or acquire their porn legally from then on. :arcadefre

244 might just be the start. If the returns are higher that the outlay they might go on to sue a lot more.

Which is something more companies should be doing. Identify the uploaders and make them squeal. Going to be tough to enforce in countries like the Philippines, but that should not stop people.

it's already been done before Titan. Read up more.

Thanks for that. Titan leading the fight against pirates. :thumbsup

Just about every tube has access logs turned off. If you leave access logs enabled on a high traffic site, they will quickly fill up your harddrive, and crash your site because mysql will start spitting error 28 from storage engine.
