Sent out over 1000 DMCA notices today...
 

Have fun removing all those, fuckers! We sent them all to your respective hosts, too. And you better check twice to make sure you got them all done CORRECTLY too. We are watching CAREFULLY.

Would be nice to have some home addressees to these guys.

What was the breakdown: Tube Sites vs Torrents?

That must be a fucking hassle..

Yeah, if only the people you advertise in your sig helped out a bit it wouldn't be so difficult sending out so many DMCAs.

No shit - I was thinking the same thing!

Good luck, Steve!

What do you mean? As in brazbucks running a big tube site?

don't forget to also send to the registrar's... some of them are trigger happy

good suggestion, thanks :thumbsup

sweet 1000 dmca removal requests, thats almost catching up to the 5000 uploads that went out today.... i guess it's a start. :1orglaugh

What was the breakdown, percentage-wise, regarding the type of sites the notices went out to?

For example... x% Tube Sites, x% Torrents, etc...

Steve, have you looked into whether it is possible to subpoena the IP addresses of users who UPLOAD stolen movies to tube sites?

That would help cut the file sharing off at the source. Or if the "user" who is uploading the video is actually the site owner fraudulently hiding behind safe harbor laws, well then, all the better :)

Good job Steve!

Good Luck Steve, seriously address what Brujah mentioned.

Good luck with that depending on where the host is located. :2 cents:

There will be another 1000 tomorrow, and the day after that, etc... until some get missed, then all hell is going to break out.

Today was "Day 1". :2 cents:


Steve Lightspeed

Remember, tube sites are the future.

Adapt or die and all that...

Can't wait to see how it plays out.

Good luck. I'm sure someone will fuck up and you can own their ass.

Nothing but respect...

Good luck with that,post the results if it was effective

dmca'ing is a daily activity.. its real fun

I got one today, along with my hurt locker request for payment. I just used them to wipe my ass. What is your recourse? Seriously? Especially with someone from a foreign country? I am guessing there is no recourse? I am drunk right now and just pissing around.

"Pissing around" or not, my recourse will be forcing the major bandwidth providers to block your US traffic. Let's see how that works out for you. :(

Then there is always the "fly to your shithole country and break your knees" option. :2 cents: and what are you going to do, I live in another country. (Just "pissing around", btw)

Steve Lightspeed

i got 12 of them

good luck steve(s) :banana

ur so cool

This is quote of the week!!! Thats how i would handle it.:thumbsup


But on the lame side, i think beating down or threatening to beat down GFY thieves is a banable offense.


Just sayin..

Thanks! And I have to say, I'd *hate* to see GFY take a pro-piracy stance by banning me. Playboy is American as apple pie. Mainstream press would just eat that up, wouldn't they? :thumbsup

Steve Lightspeed

do you have hosted flvs for your program?

Banning you wouldn't have anything to do with 'pro-piracy' and have more to do with 'less internet douchbagedness'. Really, threatening to fly to foreign countries to break people's legs? Calling every other country in the world a 'shithole'? Typical American 'tough guy' routine, even though your average foreigner would wipe the ground with your average American (easily). Sooooo professional no wonder these pirates take you so seriously.

SteveLightspeed, you spend a lot of time in VAIN...

once you waste hours in this, 1000 other philipinos or indians take a whole members area to pornbb.org or extreme-board.com to get paid 10 bucks per 1000 downloads..

those guys have nothing to lose. It's a lost battle long ago.

.

Eat ass. At least we don't have Quebec.

Sorry but the rest of the countries are a shithole.

the united shithole of america :P

actually banning him would be due to the intent to inflict physical harm on a user and that alone would ban him even if said jokingly or in jest.

Somehow I doubt that Steve is getting banned any time soon.

It actually looks more like this:

Duh.

I think that about covers it :)

She's very nice, though :D

respect , respect , respect :thumbsup

great news for sure. bump for steve

Looks to me like Steve's doing a pretty damn good job of adapting.

I will quote you on that:thumbsup:thumbsup

keep us informed Steve!

Do you send them also out to NON US/CA situated companies?

They are going to everyone infringing on our content. I expect alot of international sites will ignore the letters. In fact, I'm counting on it. :winkwink:
