dont get me wrong. i dont approve piracy, but as long as there arent any real global ways of fighting it, it´s in my opinion no use to try. but as i said: its just my personal point of view

Well, I don't doubt a great many of our videos are out there. But it should also be noted not every one of those 25,000 google results was a pirated video. Not a very good marker.

Try and get them all down? Not necessarily. Try and get every single one we're made aware of taken down? Definitely.

I'd like a good number of people going to blogs to get their free porn fix to click through to a link that says "video has been removed" and get all frustrated that keeps happening. I'd like blog operators to constantly get emails and comments from their readers bemoaning removal of videos shortly after their posting of the link. I'd like blog operators to keep having to change the upload service they use 'cause they're tired of the files constantly being deleted. I'd like surfers to spend awhile downloading a video only to find out it's not what they were expecting, hoping for, or of such poor quality they can't get off to it.

I want people to know the flat out easiest, most reliable way to get ahold of the content is to pay for it. Rather than have to dig around looking over a ton of different blogs to see who might actually have the videos today and who hasn't been busted yet.

Attentive and dedicated attention to combatting piracy can go quite far towards accomplishing all of that.

That's another thing that totally blows me away! The attitude that is made obvious through the comments. Patting the poster on the back as if they did anything! As if they were the ones that created that video.

Or the blogger discussing all the work they put in to getting the videos up and expecting thanks. Or even bloggers ranting and raving about how the videosharing services keep deleting the videos, as if they're being wronged or something.

As you say, totally mind numbing.

Bittorrents really are the worst, though. The filesharing services are pretty good about removing stuff. But the torrents and those that facilitate that system could give a rat's ass.

Bit torrents are the worst. I can understand a video here or there, but still wrapping my head around whole sites being uploaded to torrents. It's like raiding a store and taking EVERYTHING.

Maybe I'm not sending the right S&D or sending it to the wrong place. Does anyone know how these companies got on this torrents "BANNED VIDEOS" list? If so , let me know so I can see how to get my content off this torrent. :

corbin i know that the google thing isnt exactly totally right. but the point is you would have to go through all those links to see if it is a link to your ripped content or not (and thats just google). and since there is no global internet law you cant even get at 80% of the people.

and i would also like a world, where all people would be good and live in freedom and peace. this kind of world doesnt exist in the internet though (nor anywhere else).

but please go ahead and fight that fight. it´s good for all of us. believe me, we have spend more than 150.000 $ in the past years to try JUST that. i am just plain tired of putting money into that fight with no outcome at the end.

I don't think things are as hopeless as you might believe.

There are a great many individuals involved in piracy, no doubt. But those great many individuals are all tied together by the shared networks they use to engage in piracy. Those shared networks include the blogs they go to, the online communities they go to, the online groups and forums and social networking sites and other venues through which they communicate with another to share videos.

Those are the things you go after. And they are much fewer in number than the individuals.

I've personally shut down entire blogs on Google's blogspot - not by getting Google to take them offline, but getting their readership so sick and tired of clicking on links only to find the video was removed that all those surfers stopped going to that blog. Or getting the operator of that blog so sick of having to repost videos or find new filesharing sites to use or so sick of their readers bitching and moaning about deleted files that they gave up on the blogs.

It's an ugly word, but "harrassment" does well to describe it. Harrassing these blogs and communities not through any illegal means but by getting their ISPs to enforce their own TOS's, making it such a pain in the butt to do what they're doing that they give up.

I agree with Corbin_Fisher_BD on this one. There are many ways to combat the pirates, particularly by not tolerating bloggers who indiscriminately link to pirated videos. Any blog that becomes "known" as a cool place to find links to pirated videos will quickly become known to the companies whose stolen content is being given away. Getting the file sharing services to drop a particular file is not that difficult and causes frustration for the visitors to the blog, hopefully enough that they will stop visiting the blog.

It is an endless battle, but not fighting it with all the tactics available would be disasterous for the industry. I don't own any content but how the heck am I supposed to sell memberships to sites when it is so easy for surfers to get the stuff for free?
