In listening to all these people in the seminars at Internext that are being, or have been sued. Plus the legal discussion on dealing with conten theft, plus many other issues discussed it surprises me that one of these groups, or "bros" have not come up with an Adult Wiki.
Instead of all the legal bits and pieces held by the top tiers, or different groups, why not start centralizing it? You can start with putting how to deal with DMCA in there. How to knock out tubes from SERPS. Include all the other exciting tips on what a DMCA must include, the 'agents' for the differnt processors, rapidshare, and so forth.
Eventually, over time, you would have a massive DB for people who are clueless, new, or lazy to go to and start handling their DMCA. Or you could advertise those who do it.
Start addin in the netpond, and other significant articles, facts, best practices based on FACT not opinion.... just typing that makes me laugh.
Anyways, in a few years time you would have a resource that would build a better industry as a whole, which is what many in the seminars say they are trying to do. But what gets me, personally, is there is all this talk for the top tiers. Like they they are the only one's that matter, but it's not true.
If some mom n pop is sued in the Florida panhandle, the decision of THAT CASE effects us ALL. So if they are not following the Cambria list, or countless other things and legislation is passed in Polk County. It could effect us
all.
The WIKI, for example, would cover things such as...
1. Cambria list
2. How to file a DMCA
3. How to knock tubes out of SERPS
4. Filing copyright
5. Who to contact for adult legal questions. Big AND small companies.
6. How to's, manuals, best practices
7. PDF's from seminars, and different subjects over the years
8. A master list of 'copyright agents' for differnet companies, Google, MegaUpload, etc.
Plus many other things. Those are just a few that come to mind. But it could be a nice resource for the LONG TERM. Most of us in this business are, or have, been in it for years. It is a sound investment for those who truly do care. Put your time and money where it will best serve us ALL.
