Who knows what else we will see....

Shap is not answering on all this?

He answered allright. By complaining to mods and asking to ban people i guess :)

With any environment where there is a mechanism for people to put up videos, inevitably you will have a few who do so with content that doesn't belong to them. The IMPORTANT thing is that the site removes it as soon as possible, would that not be the same with hosted gallery content etc? If they were leaving it up saying fuck you, maybe, but they are actively working to REMOVE that content. In fact, it looks like they're asking for people to help by reporting it for removal. Wow, sounds so fishy (NOT!)

Just for the record does this mean that any adult entity that puts up any form of tube site are running illegal sites or going to get roasted on GFY? Sure looks like it.

Technically (correct me if I am wrong lawyers o gfy) by them removing that content sans dmca, and if it was truly user submitted would constitute them moderating the content, therefore bypassing them from the 2257 loophole on user submitted content.

Think someone REALLY needs to layout why tube sites are allowed to operate without documents. Lot of confusion about it without question.

Well it's certainly one of those grey areas that happens in adult and on the internet when a new medium of communication is opened... takes a while for the dust to settle and a protocol to be established. Sure does throw back to the early days of TGP when everyone screamed about them being hotbeds for stolen content and it was up to the people who ran the sites to figure out how to deal with the mess.

Would you please hurry up and get theairekbay.org online? My torrent client's-a-waitin'... :1orglaugh

As you can see Lebanon Part 2, which is a 57 min DVD rip was added 175 fucking days ago! I'm really touched by how much they were working to remove stolen content until they were caught on the forums. I want to cry.

Yes just bothers me when people start screaming for to take content down when they are not the copyright holder. Tube sites have to either be user submitted and content is only removed after dmca notice, or Owner submitted only. Owner submitted would be responsible to have 2257 docs on file. Can't have a blend of both and still stay on the legal side of 2257 from what I understand. With certain exceptions of course being content that is illegal period such as cp and beast etc. the owner could of course remove that.

The way to stop things such as that would be to have a filter or file size limit for uploads. Filter that only allows say a max of 10 minute clip to be uploaded.

1. I don't know who that fucker is, I could give a shit if he is some small fish, fucking shark or a whale in my eyes he is a business man just like any of you

Let me give you a quick reality check from a person who has nothing to do with this business and looks at the adult biz from a strictly economic perspective.

You have a biz (porn site) people pay for your porn(demand) and then share it and upload(you demand goes down because your consumers share) it on tube sites so now you as a business man have to be like hmmm I cant fight this but how can I change my business model (change the way you supply the content) so I can continue making money and working along side of tube site or creating my own. You guys sit here complaining and bitching get a fucking grip and do something about it.

If this is you bread and butter do something and think about.

I am sitting here on my ass learning from all you fuck knobs to find out all the Weak spots and Weak links

That doesnt matter to them and the asskissers will say what they think will help their agenda. its getting sadder and sadder.

True. Asskissers first went on like "where is the proof? where is proof?" Now that they saw the proof they are trying to find more ridicilous excuse.

Throw them $5 and they will bark louder than any dog.

Isnt it possible that whoever made a tube site, allowed user uploads. People uploaded stolen content, they saw this thread and removed said stolen content.

You guys should take your complaints to the government instead of gfy all day, you could run a tube with 10 billion stolen videos so long as they are removed on request there is nothing illegal people overreact to much.

bizzzzzzzzump:upsidedow

Are you related to George Bush?

So it would be OK to dump tons of toxic chemicals into your drinking water as long as I stopped when you asked me to a few months later?

it's OK to eat Uranium bar if you're starving:2 cents:

hi everyone.
gaytube is a 100% legal site. all content is user submitted. gaytube is run the way youtube is. all dmca requests are handled immediately. our user agreement has a prohibition against copyright infringement. everything is done the same way youtube does. in the 4 months the site has been open i've received only 4 dmca emails. i handled them immediately. there is nothing illegal about gaytube.

Gaytube is not illegal, just lots of the content was. That is just semantics.

I just want to clarify your position. You don't remove content that you know you don't have a right to have until the copyright holder notifies you?

The canadian winter has given your brain frostbite.

hi corona.
that is incorrect. I now screen all incoming videos. this screening process started about two weeks ago. if a video looks like a potential copyright violation I contact the user that submitted it and request more info. the first 4 months were spent working on the script. all efforts were spent trying to keep the script from crashing. it took time but we finally stabilized it and integrated a sponsor tool which is doing very well. gaytube is converting at 1:140 with gaygravy and our overall average is 1:350 to all sponsors.

there are many companies that upload their own videos just for the exposure via the watermark. i am working on a tool where these companies can upload to a special area.

Who decides whats ok? For most of us the law, and the law says running a tube with 10 billion stolen videos that are user uploaded is OK so long as you remove on request.

And tons of toxic chemicals have been being pumped into the sea for a long time, which is why its recommended not to eat to much fish. So i guess it is ok correct.

HI SHAP!!!

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

it's so funny that a half hour after you signed off as Shap yesterday, Jack was born and posted his first thread.

Keep up the charade buddy, I needed the laugh!

hi gitzinger.
shap called me yesterday after he saw the threads and asked me to take care of it. he promised the powers that be not to post on gfy this weekend.

Yea, there's nothing illegal that anyone can hold you accountable in the court. Isn't that exactly what piratebay, redtube, rapidshare and all others do? :)

All in all, it's how you choose to run your biz, but shap sunk to a new low with gaytube. Let's see him preach about how he has his content stolen again.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

:helpme :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Man, I'm laughing my brains out reading all this stuff.

Short version :
This Shap guy reads on gfy he's busted running illegal sites, he quickly removes all full videos from the site and comes back to gfy as Jack The Gay with lame excuses :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

This "new medium of communication" is what, the blatant theft of others property hidden under the guise of user submitted?

What "protocol" ... getting caught?

The person in question is to smart for this to happen in the fairy tale fashion you are laying out. :2 cents:

latest sigspot in a while

are you saying you are using nulled verson of clipshare from torrents?

First you say this in the other thread with your first post
Then you say this:

So in one or both of these you are lying.

Also, why would Shap (you) have to promise the powers that be not to post on gfy this weekend? makes no sense.

Jesus Shap, you have gone to new lows.

Again, thanks for the laughs!

Illegal? :Oh crap

looks like it's time for Jet to post a retraction or get banned. Nothing we run is illegal.

Need to pay the bills some how I guess

this thread will be locked soon
