First of all, many of those links that you posted were already dead. I have already stipulated to the fact that our service can be abused, but that is not to say it is common place.

That being said, we have already gone through the links listed above and found most them belonging to a handful of up loaders and we have gone ahead and removed all their for breach of our AUP.

This is not too dissimilar to a NORMAL hosting provider. I'm sure the mighty Hostgator has had infringing content on their servers too, but they are not responsible to police the very single file that comes in. They need to be informed and take action once done.

In any case, I am confident that all the above files (and more) have been removed. Including the first example offered by AdultKing, which appears to be the only one pornographic in nature.

But AdultKing Please feel free to keep it coming. You can send us an E-Mail if you like. You have yet to send us even 1. As I said earlier in this thread, we have NEVER received a take down request.

Regarding our business model, perhaps we could change it to make it even LESS appealing to copyright infringer. Any suggestions? We already provide no rewards scheme such as PPS and PPD. What else would you like? Perhaps we could get rid of the share of paid downloads of free files? But in our experience, few people bother to pay when you can download for free. And we don't put ads on our site either so we make no money from hits. So really, we make NOTHING from people sharing.

We would only make money from people selling files.

Really, I would like to know what more we could do.



Why would we do that? We make no money from SHARED files. This is a baseless claim. I too can say make outrageous claims regarding your business. Perhaps you are engaged in human trafficking in order to secure cheap sex workers for your pornographic material which you peddle as legit stuff. I don't know. I just made that up. But then again, so did you, didn't you?

One of the reasons I have decided to come on this forum is to cooperate with those who may be adversely affected. I don't believe we have contributed to ANY of your problems (unless one of you happen to own AV3??) but in the event that our service is used to host your content illegally, do you not want cooperation?

Seriously guys, whats going on?
What is going on? We are exposing some content thieves, that's going on.

We (and I am speaking about the ACIUF) found links at some big pirates and they could be downloaded at fileshoppe.net, so keep your fairytales for yourself.

Let's make it simple: hand over all information of uploaders that upload stolen content. Put that in your TOS and live up to it.

That might change my mind just a very little bit.
