We have worked out a deal with the Manwin empire...

Anytime we find any form of videos that are pirated or suspiciously pirated, we have a direct contact (unfortunately, we can't share... However others can use their DMCA forms)... We email them a link to the video.. We say "This video is pirated" and they will remove the videos for us.

However, we have things to look for... Let's say the video is from the studio: ABC Producer. The uploader name is "ABCProducer" we can't report it... There's many different things we look for to be certain they are pirated. These are the things we look for:

Runtime
Listen to music
Production Quality
Logos
Familiarity of the movie (such as if you know an exact ABC Producer scene, we can report it).

We have to be 100% certain without any doubts what so ever that it is a pirated video. If it is in reality a fact that a user has uploaded his / her personal homemade video, it could piss off their consumer base. So we have to be very careful.

So far, just over 100 video links have been sent! So far out of those 100 video links, 27 videos have been removed!

Unfortunately, it's hard for them to ban a users IP. So they may ban a speciifc user, that user can re-signup to their sites and reupload their favorite video.

We do not need producers permission to email this over. This is an association between Manwin and ourselves. Which I'm sure producers who's content has been removed will be very happy with our progress.

One other thing a lot are wondering is I'm seeing a lot of Non-Exclusive paysites are watermarking content they've bought non-exclusively (such as Maxpixels). So let's say you bought a video from Maxpixels. You've watermarked that video with your site URL, we still have jurisdiction to remove them.

We skim through the tube videos, clicking on about every 30 seconds of time length. We don't believe that sponsors will upload videos that are 20+ minutes in length without any watermarkings. That's an obvious one.

I'm not exactly sure how this will work out, but at least we do have a shot.

I also hear they will begin moderating video uploads. Whether this is fact or fiction, it has not been confirmed yet.
