Announcement: MojoHost Policy Change Regarding 'Tube' Site Hosting
 

Dear friends, clients and community:

In 2008 the challenges of 'principle' facing the adult online industry are fundamentally the same as when I began in 1999. In my opinion, there have always been two underlying considerations for every business practice: 1) is it legal, and 2) is it the right thing to do.

I had my own birth by fire in our industry nine years ago after purchasing a business that I thought answered yes and yes to those questions... but post-purchase discovered it was, as a whole, not legal and not right by my own standards. I made many mistakes but the long story short is I "deleted" everything and started from scratch as soon as I figured out what needed to be done and how I was going to pay for it during that, my first year of poverty and self employment.

As a hosting service provider MojoHost has a rich 6 year history of providing exceptional service, personal support and great value. We have certainly made mistakes over the years but overwhelmingly are proud of our service history and reputation for good business practices.

It is my personal belief, and now the official position of MojoHost, that tube sites whose business model relies predominately on revenues generated from the dissemination of obviously stolen content are unacceptable and we will not host them. Any sites discovered on our network that fall into this category of publishing a preponderance of unlicensed videos will be given 60 days to bring their business model into compliance or may have our assistance in choosing and moving to another suitable host.

Everyone has to do what is right for their business. This is simply our choice and it is motivated purely by what I feel is best for our industry as a whole. This proliferation of stolen content has gone on for too long and affected content producers and publishers in ways that everyone does not yet understand. I am of the belief that we will continue to see these tube sites legitimize their business models, and as each of them finish we would be happy to provide them with a hosting solution.

Sincerely,

Brad Mitchell, CEO
MojoHost

rock on brad :)

congrats, brad! great decision - especially cause bandwidth providers and hosting companies are the only winners in the tube thing probably

nice! :)

indeed :(

a lot of them are trying to sell right now.

i've seen the top secret emails trying to sell back to the people that they made the initial revenues off of.

quite sad to watch the greed turn to "fuck i gotta unload this fucker"

fuck em.

Stand tall Brad! If our ethics become our ceiling, then so be it. I hope other hosts follow your lead.

Well, have you actually had to terminate any accounts, or send any warning e-mails? Do any of these sites even host with you?

Proud members of the Mojohost Family!

Moreso with every day. :)

Good to hear!

:thumbsup :thumbsup Bravo to you Brad! Great business decision imho!!!

Brad once again does whats right for the industry...

:thumbsup

Another reason Brad rocks so hard!

Keep the good work :thumbsup

sweet justice...

Leave it to TOEjo to lead the way.

:thumbsup:thumbsup :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Good stuff Brad! :pimp

:thumbsup

Putting money were your mouth is were much of this industry fails. Knowing the amount of bandwith sites like this do it is a very expensive choice to do what is ethically right here and we at Karups applaud you on your decision.

nice. good policy.

very stand up. nice job

Great :) Fuck the tubes!

Another reason why we love Mojo Host! :)

hi, i need 20,000 mbps for my tube site and im willing to pay $30/mbit...

will mojo host my tube site?

That's a very nice move and great news!

It's also nice to see that some of the big illegal tube sites are simply out of cash and desperate to sell their sites. They realized that giving away porn for free simply isn't profitable.

:)

Way to go!

This is why www.SatanCash.com hosts with www.MOJOHOST.com ;)

great news!

Seriously you are my new favorite Super Hero!

Good shit Brad

Good going...

Hats off to you Brad and the Mojo team
