We've been operating for 66 days, have not shut off all forms of payment processing for all sites so of course not many have failed completely. However we have disrupted piracy and will not stop until these sites lose ALL forms of payment processing and ad network support.
Our aim is to remove all forms of monetization for file lockers.

I wonder if this thread gets so many views because content producers like what he is doing, or people that make money from piracy hate it? |
Given that many replies in this thread have been anti our efforts I would imagine that file lockers operators watch this thread like a hawk, in fact we have seen evidence to suggest exactly that.

We do not believe we are wasting our time. Anybody who thought this would be over in a few weeks is delusional. This is a sustained long term effort that is costing money, time and resources to run.

Paypal is able to "fine" merchants who are repeat offenders against Paypal's AUP. In other words in some cases these accounts will NOT be paid out and in those cases Paypal provides the funds to charitable organisations such as the National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children.
