Actually you have absolutely ZERO case since 1) You're not the copyright holder and 2) A program is not responsible for the content of sites that link to them.
Google may play ball because they're a publicly traded company and don't want the bad PR of a lawsuit....but how many people have sued AFF so far?
Not many content producers are willing to take a 6 figure gamble on creating a new precedent in copyright law.
All of that being said....YES, sites that steal content suck and their owners should be hung up by the balls. YES companies that profit from said theft are also scum and should be boycotted by the rest of us.
You still handled this wrong, none of the content being stolen was yours, so you have no standing to even contact youporn, much less their advertisers.....like I said before, you're just pissed of at one or both of them and started this little fiasco to get even. You had no intention whatsoever of "getting content removed" or "making things right".
