The thing that sucks about this issue is that the people who are profiting from it (dating programs, toy programs, etc) aren't affected by content theft.

They don't produce content so they could care less. The sites that are doing this can't make money by selling memberships, because they give away entire members areas for free, so blackballing them won't help either.

The people who produce content by and large don't have alot of traffic, and the traffic they do have is used to promote their own products, so these companies really have no leverage against the Adult Friend Finders of the world.

One thing that is still true about this business is that traffic rules. If you get the people with the big traffic to blacklist the companies that are making these tube and torrent sites profitable, maybe THEN you'll have the leverage you need.
