alwaysgayalways,
There recently was an adult industry trade group established with this in mind. Time will tell as far as how effective they may be but I think that on this front, any action is progress and a good thing and hopefully they'll do well.

is the organization.


As far as that deusgruego fellow, I submitted complaints to rapidshare, sendspace and gigasize this morning about all of our videos he was distributing there. Those 3 hosting services responded quickly, took down the files, and now the blog operator has closed down the blog (deusgruego2, at least, which is the one all our files were on). The blog operator left this ironic message:

The majority of links had been denounced and extinguished of rapidshare and sendspace, I am closing blog. One more time we were victims of one becomes wormy cursed that it does not have what to make. Abraços. Renato.
(loosely translated from Portuguese to English using Google Translate)

I always get a kick out of the sob stories and martyrdom status these guys use and try and assume when their blogs are shut down or their video links are removed. The fact that they are illegally pirating videos and then feel so wronged and hurt when they're called on it and someone interferes with their illegal activity really shows you what kind of people we're dealing with here and the attitude they have.

It won't be long before he starts up a new blog to replace the one shut down, and then we'll make it a point to make him a martyr then too.
