Dropbox and other such services have nothing to fear and in my discussions with Paypal this morning that distinction was discussed. I am not going after legitimate file lockers.

I hope this clarifies things, perhaps my choice of words could have been better however I am often posting in the middle of the night here due to timezones and sometimes have minor brain freezes.

I hope that you will support my efforts, if you look at http://stopfilelockers.com you will see that the only sites being targeted are the *bad* file lockers.
I was just going based on the change to Paypal's AUP that you wanted, to drop all file lockers. Live Drive is another legitimate file locker.

Support? Yes, infact, maybe I can help you with your efforts. I'm pretty good at writing scrapers. Maybe I can write something to monitor file lockers and report details to you when questionable content is found on the site. I could make it grab screen shots for you...Make it easier for you to find and collect the data you need so that it frees up more of your time to tackle the more challenging aspects of what it is you're doing.

PS: If you need another mirror for your site lmk ;)
