@tnar Yeah, that is a GREAT idea (being sarcastic). To have one's uploading privileges revoked for no specific reason, without any prior warning, with no chance to appeal, without a list of titles which are forbidden, without those DMCA takedowns being verified (I KNOW FOR FACT THAT THEY ARE NOT VERIFIED!!!).... All while the same titles remain on the site in other formats.
I have wondered why no content from Ru Paul and that type of video ever gets removed. That is absolutely copyrighted stuff broadcast on television - and is NOT pornographic. Porn cannot be copyrighted because porn is intrinsically illegal. For instance, if someone steals your television, that is a crime. If someone steals your cocaine, that is NOT a crime. Ru Paul's content is legal, and therefore has a valid copyright. Just because someone SAYS something has a copyright on it, does not make it so.
Imagine if real copyrights were enforced. If that were true, they would have to arrest everybody who ever copied a page out of a book at a pubic. library.
The reason for copyrights is primarily to protect a company from having their product copied and SOLD - such as Apple Computers being cloned and sold as Peach computers. It also prevents people from reproducing recordings of music and mainstream movies and selling them. While rarely enforced, even sharing music and mainstream music can get one in trouble. Since porn is illegal, it is impossible to enforce any alleged copyright infringments, and never have.
Someone posted a couple of days ago about getting threatened by the FlavaWorks studio. Anybody who has watched a FlavaWorks video has already been punished enough! What garbage!
Stand by - ignorant, snarky replies to my message to follow.
