they have internet in canada?

Why are more GFY canadians pro-Guba? Is it because there's a general difference in copyright respect and opinion?

Not pro GUBA, pro common sense. Hard to get a feel for my stance from this thread, jjay bumped it because I pissed him off. The discussion was in 3 or 4 threads at one time.

Could you bring the important points into this thread since it's already bumped and we're discussing it? I'm not convinced Guba is 100% bad, but I'd have to say I don't think they're exactly innocent and naive about what they're doing either. It's a bit foolish in my opinion to pretend that you're not violating multiple copyrights and abusing the property of others.

And therein lies the real source of all of the recent hooplah...

They allowed it...

Seems to me that the wrong people are being bashed....
Guba's been around for a number of years, and mention on this board a number of times without such bombardment...

But when GFY allowed them to skin, everyone lunged at Guba and very little said about the source of the situation...

At the time I posted this I was laughing at everyone crying that GUBA skinned GFY then claiming their whining was the reason it was removed. It's been proven before that if you lay out the cash you can advertise here. Ibill has even done it.

Another point I was making is that GUBA has been around forever. People were saying how they were going to take them down but they've been going strong for almost a decade and claim to have 10's of thousands of members. Everyone was on here acting like it was some 15 year old at mommas house with no lawyers.

Personally, I think they (GUBA) know it's a borderline area and probably even outright illegal. I also think they know that it would cost a producer more money to fight them than to just let them be. Until the laws change GUBA is going nowhere so all the crying on here is 100% pointless and will accomplish nothing. Even if the laws change I'd say GUBA is making enough money for them to justify moving 100% offshore and flipping the bird to everyone.

And finally, I was laughing at everyone crying over GUBA who uses newsgroup content when many paysites had the same content inside the members area not too long ago. They know they can do nothing about people trading pics and videos but they still get butthurt when you tell them they are being ridiculous by harping on something that will not go away no matter how loud they scream. GUBA laughs at C&D's and DMCA's as I'm pretty sure they've received hundreds or thousands over the years.

In short, everyone should spend their time making money rather than crying about something that won't go away and getting high and mighty when the ads come down like they directly impacted that. Even if they did it is a non-issue.

Oh, and the hypocrites that have no problem with looted software, music, images in sigs, or even images posted her simply for eye candy.

Neato! Does that script in your sig post other peoples content to your blog?

Brujah · 03-05-2006, 10:00 PM

but chadglni, just because a few people do it and get away with it for a few years doesn't necessarily mean it's "ok" then does it ?

I never argued what was ok, I argued that it was unstoppable therefore retarded to argue or cry about. See 2 posts up for the hypocrite example I was talking about.

I don't think it's unstoppable at all. You might remember PersonalPorn ? I'm pretty sure there's at least 1 other newsgroup service that got shut down too. There are numerous examples of these kind of services that existed for a few years and were then shutdown by lawsuits.

Not speaking of GUBA specifically, for every GUBA there are already 100 wannabes. Then you have the newsgroups, hacker forums, file share sites, etc. Sure you might can shut one down (huge task though) and 10 more will pop up at the same time. I can download full members areas to just about any popular paysite on the planet right now and I know this info without even seeking it.

That's not disputable at all. However, the more money Guba makes, the more an attractive target it becomes.

It can. It can also post your own content to your blog at random intervals. It can grab affiliate program feeds and post them to your site. It can do lots of things. I could beat someone to death with the can of soda I have on my desk but I think I will just drink it instead. You can use almost anything for illicit purposes. Guba is created for stealing other peoples content and selling access to that content. It has no other purpose. Nice try though, dipshit.

I think he was right.

BTW, looks like Guba is a tube site now. How interesting.
