Grooby Legal Action against Piracy ...

[mbf]

We use to have reps but they took them away from us.
Some people must have cried about it and they took it away.
There was so many people I wanted to neg. lol

Exactly the scenario I was thinking about.

Whatever.

My two favorite torrent sites are no longer in existence, directly related to these bundled lawsuits against illegal DLers of porn.

Sometimes firing a handgun above a crowded room has the same impact as pointing at one individual and firing.

Grooby etc., at least temporarily, put the fear of God into interweb leeches.

How do you know that?

Because they were two of the defendants in those lawsuits.

Legal expenses were too much of a hassle, their sites were repeatedly hacked and they closed down.

You don't think they'll start up again using different names? You don't think there are more sites in line behind them? These lawsuits aren't like firing a gun in a crowd; they're more like pop-pops on the 4th of July.



Seanchai said he was trying to re-coup money lost to piracy. Lawyers are expensive and the cases keep getting thrown out, so in that regard, all efforts have been abysmal failures. It's logic, Spock.

Yeah that didnt stop anything. Rule of torrent sites, you take down 1 or 2, 3x the amount are around or surface.

I find that this guy's example is a good way to see piracy. It can have a good effect on your sales.

kaiser, that is a good article! I am not sure that video, especially porn, can benefit in the same way. From a pure volume standpoint, there is so much more porn produced on a weekly basis than there is an anime book.

It will be interesting to see how these shake out. The lawyer in the story I linked is not winning.
