@fredfranco Your computer needs to download the file for you to watch, so it's always possible to get it.

Yeah the basic way is right clicking on the page, going to Inspect Element, finding the video and downloading. Usually when you can do that you can use extensions as well.

But yeah, lots of websites can block that. The workaround I found is you play the video, then you click Inspect Element, go to Sources, then you browse there until you find the video, and you copy that link. Then you go to VLC, Convert/Save, Network, then you paste the link there and it'll save it. It'll be pretty hard the first time on any website because the video might be hard to find, but still it should work. I also found that it's better to open the sources page, and then play the video, because then the part where the video is will load and appear there, so you can have a better idea of where it is.

@lololulu19 said in Upload privileges revoked for 90 days?:

@DandyLion If someone has a question about DMCA, they can always check the website which is a massive catalog of ALL copyrights so they don't upload anything that has a copyright. Nothing I have ever uploaded has a copyright.

Your assumption that a copyright has to be registered, in the same way a patent, or a trademark, is registered, is incorrect.

A copyrightable work is protected by copyright laws the moment it is created and fixed in a material form. Registering your work is voluntary, but can be beneficial. Registration legally sets a "creation date" (in case someone claims parallel creation), as well as establishing your intent to defend your copyright protections.

You have erroneously claimed (multiple times) here on these forums that porn cannot be copyrighted... I have referenced here before - on multiple occasions - that the site CorbinFisher.com went through a spell where they were suing illegal downloaders and getting large judgements against defendants!

A company called Strike 3 was subsequently hired by a few porn companies to "aggressively assert their DMCA rights" and filed THOUSANDS of complaints. While most of those were thrown out by lower courts, in 2020 Appellate Courts reinstated them!

When I comment on someone else's page, the "edit" option shows, but when I reply comments on the page of torrents I uploaded myself, there's only the option "report", like I'd report myself haha.
