But that's just me.

Small file lockers left unchecked become big file lockers. We've seen that time and time again. Large file lockers are much harder to deal with.

Still seems there's no interest in them at all, they must be doing something right since they're the only ones being ignored.
Also, it seems like they're all moving to 'payza' now but they will terminate accounts with good enough reason as far as i know.

We've dealt with plenty of large hosts. DepositFiles, FileFactory, MediaFire, Extabit. In the past 60 days we have seen 279 sites from the file locker/piracy ecosystem have their accounts terminated by Paypal.
As I have said numerous times in this thread, larger sites take much longer to deal with. It's hard work, resource intensive and costs money. Nobody gets paid to do this, every single person working on Copy Control is a volunteer. Yet we have managed to disrupt the operation of almost three hundred sites.
We could do more, faster and with greater efficiency if we had paid staff, or more people helping in compiling reports, doing the hard yards.
We don't talk about sites we are targeting unless we deem it strategically prudent to do so. The bad guys read these threads so we try not to give them forewarning of what we are doing.
I understand the frustration of knowing sites are still up profiting from infringing content but without more resources we are doing the best we can.
