Do you feel/know this is a mandatory?
Anyone ever said 'no' to this?
I was just browsing through their channels and it seems all sponsors let YouPorn over-watermark their content or they over-watermark their own content they upload there.
Some paysites have mixed content though, some with untouched and some with the YouPorn watermark.
[I know this is trend can be seen on PornHub and this 'tube family' as well]
As far as I can think about it this has benefits only for the tubes:
1) unique content
2) if content gets scraped they still have their name on it
3) SEO [?]
4) watermark traffic
On content owner side this means extra work [unless you let them do the watermarking their way..] and harms branding.
This is something I really dislike and need explanation to understand why so many accepting these 'rules'. I would rather bump the revshare/pps of the tubes than this..
Any other aspects are very welcome, let's discuss!
